How to learn to use Vim?

Hello!

There is a desire to master Vim.
Please post tutorials, articles on initial setup and use.
Resources that may be of interest.
Or any information that will reduce the amount of torment at the initial stage of familiarization.

For example, how not to spit and not take it to hell after 20 minutes?

Thank you!

Derek Wyatt's screencasts changed my attitude towards vim. vimeo.com/6999927 Here is the intro, for example.

first, install *nix for yourself, at least in a virtual machine. I assure you, in Nix you will NEVER want to demolish vim :)

1. Launch vimtotutor and play around with it.
2. There are screencasts about VIM in general: vimcasts.org/. Quite interesting, there is something to see
3. Watch some complex screencast on the topic of setting up vim for your favorite language / framework. For example, here is my post (with a screencast from Akita) about VIM + Ruby On Rails . Many chips from there will fit any language, not just ruby.

man vi? And it’s better to start using it and learn most of the commands in the process.

True, the free part is limited to 3 levels, for the rest you will have to pay $25.
