Get better with Vim one tip at a time

Add the function below to your .vimrc config file.

function! Vtip()
  echomsg system('curl -s -m 3 https://vtip.43z.one')
endfunction


In vim type :call Vtip() and hit <Enter> to view a random tip like.

Use text objects to work with larger units of text. For example, ip selects the entire paragraph, and it selects the text within the current HTML tag.

Use Vim's built-in documentation with :help anything if something is unclear.

To make vim tips quickly accessible, setup a key mapping in your .vimrc with
noremap ,v :call Vtip()<CR>
Now just pressing ,v will show a tip.

To look up a tip again after you dismissed it use :messages
