+# Vim Cheatsheet
+
+After using Emacs exclusively for years as my main editor, I was interested in
+learning VIM, at least enough to have parity with what I was familiar with in
+Emacs. Things like buffers/tabs, selecting blocks of text, copying and pasting,
+loading files, and project trees were all something I was familiar how to do in
+Emacs but I was completely lost in VIM.
+
+I have used many Vim cheatsheets to learn, and found it helpful to create my
+own. If you create your own cheatsheat, use Vim to create it.
+
+## Config
+
+    - For Vim: `~/.vimrc.`
+
+Disable cursor keys. (They will still work in Insert mode)
+
+```
+    " remove cursor keys
+    noremap <Up> <Nop>
+    noremap <Down> <Nop>
+    noremap <Left> <Nop>
+    noremap <Right> <Nop>
+```
+
+
+## Insert Mode
+
+    - `i` - `i`nsert content before selected char
+    - `a` - Insert content `a`fter select char
+    - `A` - Insert content `A`fter last char on line
+    - `o` - `o`pen new line below current
+    - `O` - `O`pen new line above current
+    - `esc`, `ctrl-c` - Exit Insert mode
+
+
+## Visual Mode
+
+    - `v` - Enter `v`isual mode
+    - `d` - `d`elete. Like "ctrl-x - cut", puts text in clipboard
+    - `y` - `y`ank. Like "ctrl-c - copy", puts text in clipbaord
+    - `c` - `c`hange. Deletes (cuts) and enter Insert mode immediately
+
+## Normal Mode Commands
+
+    - `dd` - `dd`elete line (places line in clipboard)
+
+### Files
+
+    - `:e` or `:edit` - Edit (open) new file in current buffer
+    - `:Vex` - Open `V`ertical file `ex`plorer
+    - `:Hex` - Open `H`orizontal file `ex`plorer
+
+### Tabs
+
+    - `:tabnew` or `:tabe` - Open a new tab.
+    - `:tabclose` or `:tabc` - Close the current tab.
+    - `:tabonly` or `:tabo` - Close every other tab except the current one.
+    - `gt` - `g`o `t`o next tab
+    - `gT` - `g`o `T`o previous tab
+
