These concepts are explained in more detail in the GNU Emacs Manual. @cindex buffer @cindex point @cindex mark @cindex text @cindex looking at @cindex end (of buffer) @cindex region Conceptually, a @dfn{buffer} is just a string of ASCII characters and two special characters @key{PNT} (@dfn{point}) and @key{MRK} (@dfn{mark}) such that the character @key{PNT} occurs exactly once and @key{MRK} occurs at most once. The @dfn{text} of a buffer is obtained by deleting the occurrences of @key{PNT} and @key{MRK}. If, in a buffer, there is a character following @key{PNT} then we say that point is @dfn{looking at} the character; otherwise we say that point is @dfn{at the end of buffer}. @key{PNT} and @key{MRK} are used to indicate positions in a buffer and they are not part of the text of the buffer. If a buffer contains a @key{MRK} then the text between @key{MRK} and @key{PNT} is called the @dfn{region} of the buffer.@refill @cindex window Emacs provides (multiple) @dfn{windows} on the screen, and you can see the content of a buffer through the window associated with the buffer. The cursor of the screen is always positioned on the character after @key{PNT}. @refill @cindex mode @cindex keymap @cindex local keymap @cindex global keymap A @dfn{keymap} is a table that records the bindings between characters and command functions. There is the @dfn{global keymap} common to all the buffers. Each buffer has its @dfn{local keymap} that determines the @dfn{mode} of the buffer. Local keymap overrides global keymap, so that if a function is bound to some key in the local keymap then that function will be executed when you type the key. If no function is bound to a key in the local map, however, the function bound to the key in the global map becomes in effect.@refill @node Loading VIP, Modes in VIP, Basic Concepts, Survey @section Loading VIP The recommended way to load VIP automatically is to include the line: @example (load "vip") @end example @noindent in your @file{.emacs} file. The @file{.emacs} file is placed in your home directory and it will be executed every time you invoke Emacs. If you wish to be in vi mode whenever Emacs starts up, you can include the following line in your @file{.emacs} file instead of the above line: @example (setq term-setup-hook 'vip-mode) @end example @noindent (@xref{Vi Mode}, for the explanation of vi mode.) Even if your @file{.emacs} file does not contain any of the above lines, you can load VIP and enter vi mode by typing the following from within Emacs. @example M-x vip-mode @end example @noindent @node Modes in VIP, Emacs Mode, Loading VIP, Survey @section Modes in VIP @kindex 032 @kbd{C-z} (@code{vip-change-mode-to-vi}) @kindex 0301 @kbd{C-x C-z} (@code{suspend-emacs}) Loading VIP has the effect of globally binding @kbd{C-z} (@kbd{Control-z}) to the function @code{vip-change-mode-to-vi}. The default binding of @kbd{C-z} in GNU Emacs is @code{suspend-emacs}, but, you can also call @code{suspend-emacs} by typing @kbd{C-x C-z}. Other than this, all the key bindings of Emacs remain the same after loading VIP.@refill @cindex vi mode Now, if you hit @kbd{C-z}, the function @code{vip-change-mode-to-vi} will be called and you will be in @dfn{vi mode}. (Some major modes may locally bind @kbd{C-z} to some special functions. In such cases, you can call @code{vip-change-mode-to-vi} by @code{execute-extended-command} which is invoked by @kbd{M-x}. Here @kbd{M-x} means @kbd{Meta-x}, and if your terminal does not have a @key{META} key you can enter it by typing @kbd{@key{ESC} x}. The same effect can also be achieve by typing @kbd{M-x vip-mode}.)@refill @cindex mode line You can observe the change of mode by looking at the @dfn{mode line}. For instance, if the mode line is:@refill @example -----Emacs: *scratch* (Lisp Interaction)----All------------ @end example @noindent then it will change to: @example -----Vi: *scratch* (Lisp Interaction)----All------------ @end example @noindent Thus the word @samp{Emacs} in the mode line will change to @samp{Vi}. @cindex insert mode @cindex emacs mode You can go back to the original @dfn{emacs mode} by typing @kbd{C-z} in vi mode. Thus @kbd{C-z} toggles between these two modes.@refill Note that modes in VIP exist orthogonally to modes in Emacs. This means that you can be in vi mode and at the same time, say, shell mode. Vi mode corresponds to Vi's command mode. From vi mode you can enter @dfn{insert mode} (which corresponds to Vi's insert mode) by usual Vi command keys like @kbd{i}, @kbd{a}, @kbd{o} @dots{} etc. In insert mode, the mode line will look like this: @example -----Insert *scratch* (Lisp Interaction)----All------------ @end example @noindent You can exit from insert mode by hitting @key{ESC} key as you do in Vi. That VIP has three modes may seem very complicated, but in fact it is not so. VIP is implemented so that you can do most editing remaining only in the two modes for Vi (that is vi mode and insert mode). @ifinfo The figure below shows the transition of three modes in VIP. @display === C-z ==> == i,o ... ==> emacs mode vi mode insert mode <== X-z === <=== ESC ==== @end display @end ifinfo @menu * Emacs Mode:: This is the mode you should know better. * Vi Mode:: Vi commands are executed in this mode. * Insert Mode:: You can enter text, and also can do editing if you know enough Emacs commands. @end menu @node Emacs Mode, Vi Mode, Modes in VIP, Modes in VIP @subsection Emacs Mode @kindex 032 @kbd{C-z} (@code{vip-change-mode-to-vi}) You will be in this mode just after you loaded VIP. You can do all normal Emacs editing in this mode. Note that the key @kbd{C-z} is globally bound to @code{vip-change-mode-to-vi}. So, if you type @kbd{C-z} in this mode then you will be in vi mode.@refill @node Vi Mode, Insert Mode, Emacs Mode, Modes in VIP @subsection Vi Mode This mode corresponds to Vi's command mode. Most Vi commands work as they do in Vi. You can go back to emacs mode by typing @kbd{C-z}. You can enter insert mode, just as in Vi, by typing @kbd{i}, @kbd{a} etc. @node Insert Mode, Differences from Vi, Vi Mode, Modes in VIP @subsection Insert Mode The key bindings in this mode is the same as in the emacs mode except for the following 4 keys. So, you can move around in the buffer and change its content while you are in insert mode. @table @kbd @item @key{ESC} @kindex 033 @kbd{ESC} (@code{vip-change-mode-to-vi}) (insert mode) This key will take you back to vi mode. @item C-h @kindex 010 @kbd{C-h} (@code{vip-delete-backward-char}) (insert mode) Delete previous character. @item C-w @kindex 027 @kbd{C-w} (@code{vip-delete-backward-word}) (insert mode) Delete previous word. @item C-z @kindex 032 @kbd{C-z} (@code{vip-ESC}) (insert mode) Typing this key has the same effect as typing @key{ESC} in emacs mode. Thus typing @kbd{C-z x} in insert mode will have the same effect as typing @kbd{ESC x} in emacs mode. @end table @node Differences from Vi, Undoing, Insert Mode, Survey @section Differences from Vi The major differences from Vi are explained below. @menu * Undoing:: You can undo more in VIP. * Changing:: Commands for changing the text. * Searching:: Search commands. * z Command:: You can now use zH, zM and zL as well as z- etc. * Counts:: Some Vi commands which do not accept a count now accept one. * Marking:: You can now mark the current point, beginning of the buffer etc. * Region Commands:: You can now give a region as an argument for delete commands etc. * New Commands:: Some new commands not available in Vi are added. * New Bindings:: Bindings of some keys are changed for the convenience of editing under Emacs. * Window Commands:: Commands for moving among windows etc. * Buffer Commands:: Commands for selecting buffers etc. * File Commands:: Commands for visiting files etc. * Misc Commands:: Other useful commands. @end menu @node Undoing, Changing, Differences from Vi, Differences from Vi @subsection Undoing @kindex 165 @kbd{u} (@code{vip-undo}) @kindex 056 @kbd{.} (@code{vip-repeat}) You can repeat undoing by the @kbd{.} key. So, @kbd{u} will undo a single change, while @kbd{u .@: .@: .@:}, for instance, will undo 4 previous changes. Undo is undoable as in Vi. So the content of the buffer will be the same before and after @kbd{u u}.@refill @node Changing, Searching, Undoing, Differences from Vi @subsection Changing Some commands which change a small number of characters are executed slightly differently. Thus, if point is at the beginning of a word @samp{foo} and you wished to change it to @samp{bar} by typing @w{@kbd{c w}}, then VIP will prompt you for a new word in the minibuffer by the prompt @samp{foo => }. You can then enter @samp{bar} followed by @key{RET} or @key{ESC} to complete the command. Before you enter @key{RET} or @key{ESC} you can abort the command by typing @kbd{C-g}. In general, @kindex 007 @kbd{C-g} (@code{vip-keyboard-quit}) you can abort a partially formed command by typing @kbd{C-g}.@refill @node Searching, z Command, Changing, Differences from Vi @subsection Searching @kindex 057 @kbd{/} (@code{vip-search-forward}) @kindex 077 @kbd{?} (@code{vip-search-backward}) As in Vi, searching is done by @kbd{/} and @kbd{?}. The string will be searched literally by default. To invoke a regular expression search, first execute the search command @kbd{/} (or @kbd{?}) with empty search string. (I.e, type @kbd{/} followed by @key{RET}.) A search for empty string will toggle the search mode between vanilla search and regular expression search. You cannot give an offset to the search string. (It is a limitation.) By default, search will wrap around the buffer as in Vi. You can change this by rebinding the variable @code{vip-search-wrap-around}. @xref{Customization}, for how to do this.@refill @node z Command, Counts, Searching, Differences from Vi @subsection z Command @kindex 1723 @kbd{z H} (@code{vip-line-to-top}) @kindex 1721 @kbd{z RET} (@code{vip-line-to-top}) @kindex 1723 @kbd{z M} (@code{vip-line-to-middle}) @kindex 1722 @kbd{z .} (@code{vip-line-to-middle}) @kindex 1723 @kbd{z L} (@code{vip-line-to-bottom}) @kindex 1722 @kbd{z -} (@code{vip-line-to-bottom}) For those of you who cannot remember which of @kbd{z} followed by @key{RET}, @kbd{.}@: and @kbd{-} do what. You can also use @kbd{z} followed by @kbd{H}, @kbd{M} and @kbd{L} to place the current line in the Home (Middle, and Last) line of the window.@refill @node Counts, Marking, z Command, Differences from Vi @subsection Counts Some Vi commands which do not accept a count now accept one @table @kbd @item p @itemx P @kindex 160 @kbd{p} (@code{vip-put-back}) @kindex 120 @kbd{P} (@code{vip-Put-back}) Given counts, text will be yanked (in Vi's sense) that many times. Thus @kbd{3 p} is the same as @kbd{p p p}. @item o @itemx O @kindex 157 @kbd{o} (@code{vip-open-line}) @kindex 117 @kbd{O} (@code{vip-Open-line}) Given counts, that many copies of text will be inserted. Thus @kbd{o a b c @key{ESC}} will insert 3 lines of @samp{abc} below the current line. @item / @itemx ? @kindex 057 @kbd{/} (@code{vip-search-forward}) @kindex 077 @kbd{?} (@code{vip-search-backward}) Given a count @var{n}, @var{n}-th occurrence will be searched. @end table @node Marking, Region Commands, Counts, Differences from Vi @subsection Marking Typing an @kbd{m} followed by a lower-case character @var{ch} marks the point to the register named @var{ch} as in Vi. In addition to these, we have following key bindings for marking. @kindex 155 @kbd{m} (@code{vip-mark-point}) @table @kbd @item m < Set mark at the beginning of buffer. @item m > Set mark at the end of buffer. @item m . Set mark at point (and push old mark on mark ring). @item m , Jump to mark (and pop mark off the mark ring). @end table @node Region Commands, New Commands, Marking, Differences from Vi @subsection Region Commands @cindex region Vi operators like @kbd{d}, @kbd{c} etc. are usually used in combination with motion commands. It is now possible to use current region as the argument to these operators. (A @dfn{region} is a part of buffer delimited by point and mark.) The key @kbd{r} is used for this purpose. Thus @kbd{d r} will delete the current region. If @kbd{R} is used instead of @kbd{r} the region will first be enlarged so that it will become the smallest region containing the original region and consisting of whole lines. Thus @kbd{m .@: d R} will have the same effect as @kbd{d d}.@refill @node New Commands, New Bindings, Region Commands, Differences from Vi @subsection Some New Commands Note that the keys below (except for @kbd{R}) are not used in Vi. @table @kbd @item C-a @kindex 001 @kbd{C-a} (@code{vip-beginning-of-line}) Move point to the beginning of line. @item C-n @kindex 016 @kbd{C-n} (@code{vip-next-window}) If you have two or more windows in the screen, this key will move point to the next window. @item C-o @kindex 017 @kbd{C-o} (@code{vip-open-line-at-point}) Insert a newline and leave point before it, and then enter insert mode. @item C-r @kindex 022 @kbd{C-r} (@code{isearch-backward}) Backward incremental search. @item C-s @kindex 023 @kbd{C-s} (@code{isearch-forward}) Forward incremental search. @item C-c @itemx C-x @itemx @key{ESC} @kindex 003 @kbd{C-c} (@code{vip-ctl-c}) @kindex 0300 @kbd{C-x} (@code{vip-ctl-x}) @kindex 033 @kbd{ESC} (@code{vip-ESC}) These keys will exit from vi mode and return to emacs mode temporarily. If you hit one of these keys, Emacs will be in emacs mode and will believe that you hit that key in emacs mode. For example, if you hit @kbd{C-x} followed by @kbd{2}, then the current window will be split into 2 and you will be in vi mode again. @item \ @kindex 134 @kbd{\} (@code{vip-escape-to-emacs}) Escape to emacs mode. Hitting @kbd{\} will take you to emacs mode, and you can execute a single Emacs command. After executing the Emacs command you will be in vi mode again. You can give a count before typing @kbd{\}. Thus @kbd{5 \ *}, as well as @kbd{\ C-u 5 *}, will insert @samp{*****} before point. Similarly @kbd{1 0 \ C-p} will move the point 10 lines above the current line.@refill @item K @kindex 113 @kbd{K} (@code{vip-kill-buffer}) Kill current buffer if it is not modified. Useful when you selected a buffer which you did not want. @item Q @itemx R @kindex 121 @kbd{Q} (@code{vip-query-replace}) @kindex 122 @kbd{R} (@code{vip-replace-string}) @kbd{Q} is for query replace and @kbd{R} is for replace. By default, string to be replaced are treated literally. If you wish to do a regular expression replace, first do replace with empty string as the string to be replaced. In this way, you can toggle between vanilla and regular expression replacement. @item v @itemx V @kindex 166 @kbd{v} (@code{vip-find-file}) @kindex 126 @kbd{V} (@code{vip-find-file-other-window}) These keys are used to Visit files. @kbd{v} will switch to a buffer visiting file whose name can be entered in the minibuffer. @kbd{V} is similar, but will use window different from the current window. @item # @kindex 0430 @kbd{#} (@code{vip-command-argument}) If followed by a certain character @var{ch}, it becomes an operator whose argument is the region determined by the motion command that follows. Currently, @var{ch} can be one of @kbd{c}, @kbd{C}, @kbd{g}, @kbd{q} and @kbd{s}.@refill @item # c @kindex 0432 @kbd{# c} (@code{downcase-region}) Change upper-case characters in the region to lower case (@code{downcase-region}). @item # C @kindex 0431 @kbd{# C} (@code{upcase-region}) Change lower-case characters in the region to upper case. For instance, @kbd{# C 3 w} will capitalize 3 words from the current point (@code{upcase-region}). @item # g @kindex 0432 @kbd{# g} (@code{vip-global-execute}) Execute last keyboard macro for each line in the region (@code{vip-global-execute}).@refill @item # q @kindex 0432 @kbd{# q} (@code{vip-quote-region}) Insert specified string at the beginning of each line in the region (@code{vip-quote-region}). @item # s @kindex 0432 @kbd{# s} (@code{spell-region}) Check spelling of words in the region (@code{spell-region}). @item * @kindex 052 @kbd{*} (@code{vip-call-last-kbd-macro}) Call last keyboard macro. @end table @node New Bindings, Window Commands, New Commands, Differences from Vi @subsection New Key Bindings In VIP the meanings of some keys are entirely different from Vi. These key bindings are done deliberately in the hope that editing under Emacs will become easier. It is however possible to rebind these keys to functions which behave similarly as in Vi. @xref{Customizing Key Bindings}, for details. @table @kbd @item C-g @itemx g @kindex 007 @kbd{C-g} (@code{vip-keyboard-quit}) @kindex 147 @kbd{g} (@code{vip-info-on-file}) In Vi, @kbd{C-g} is used to get information about the file associated to the current buffer. Here, @kbd{g} will do that, and @kbd{C-g} is used to abort a command (this is for compatibility with emacs mode.) @item SPC @itemx @key{RET} @kindex 040 @kbd{SPC} (@code{vip-scroll}) @kindex 015 @kbd{RET} (@code{vip-scroll-back}) Now these keys will scroll up and down the text of current window. Convenient for viewing the text. @item s @itemx S @kindex 163 @kbd{s} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer}) @kindex 123 @kbd{S} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer-other-window}) They are used to switch to a specified buffer. Useful for switching to already existing buffer since buffer name completion is provided. Also a default buffer will be given as part of the prompt, to which you can switch by just typing @key{RET} key. @kbd{s} is used to select buffer in the current window, while @kbd{S} selects buffer in another window. @item C @itemx X @kindex 103 @kbd{C} (@code{vip-ctl-c-equivalent}) @kindex 1300 @kbd{X} (@code{vip-ctl-x-equivalent}) These keys will exit from vi mode and return to emacs mode temporarily. If you type @kbd{C} (@kbd{X}), Emacs will be in emacs mode and will believe that you have typed @kbd{C-c} (@kbd{C-x}, resp.) in emacs mode. Moreover, if the following character you type is an upper-case letter, then Emacs will believe that you have typed the corresponding control character. You will be in vi mode again after the command is executed. For example, typing @kbd{X S} in vi mode is the same as typing @kbd{C-x C-s} in emacs mode. You get the same effect by typing @kbd{C-x C-s} in vi mode, but the idea here is that you can execute useful Emacs commands without typing control characters. For example, if you hit @kbd{X} (or @kbd{C-x}) followed by @kbd{2}, then the current window will be split into 2 and you will be in vi mode again.@refill @end table In addition to these, @code{ctl-x-map} is slightly modified: @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 3} (@code{vip-buffer-in-two-windows}) @table @kbd @item X 3 @itemx C-x 3 This is equivalent to @kbd{C-x 1 C-x 2} (1 + 2 = 3). @end table @node Window Commands, Buffer Commands, New Bindings, Differences from Vi @subsection Window Commands In this and following subsections, we give a summary of key bindings for basic functions related to windows, buffers and files. @table @kbd @item C-n @kindex 016 @kbd{C-n} (@code{vip-next-window}) Switch to next window. @item X 1 @itemx C-x 1 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 1} (@code{delete-other-windows}) Delete other windows. @item X 2 @itemx C-x 2 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 2} (@code{split-window-vertically}) Split current window into two windows. @item X 3 @itemx C-x 3 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 3} (@code{vip-buffer-in-two-windows}) Show current buffer in two windows. @end table @node Buffer Commands, File Commands, Window Commands, Differences from Vi @subsection Buffer Commands @table @kbd @item s @kindex 163 @kbd{s} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer}) Switch to the specified buffer in the current window (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer}). @item S @kindex 123 @kbd{S} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer-other-window}) Switch to the specified buffer in another window (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer-other-window}). @item K @kindex 113 @kbd{K} (@code{vip-kill-buffer}) Kill the current buffer if it is not modified. @item X S @itemx C-x C-s @kindex 1302 @kbd{X S} (@code{save-buffer}) Save the current buffer in the file associated to the buffer. @end table @node File Commands, Misc Commands, Buffer Commands, Differences from Vi @subsection File Commands @table @kbd @item v @kindex 166 @kbd{v} (@code{vip-find-file}) Visit specified file in the current window. @item V @kindex 126 @kbd{V} (@code{vip-find-file-other-window}) Visit specified file in another window. @item X W @itemx C-x C-w @kindex 1302 @kbd{X W} (@code{write-file}) Write current buffer into the specified file. @item X I @itemx C-x C-i @kindex 1302 @kbd{X I} (@code{insert-file}) Insert specified file at point. @end table @node Misc Commands, Vi Commands, File Commands, Differences from Vi @subsection Miscellaneous Commands @table @kbd @item X ( @itemx C-x ( @kindex 1301 @kbd{X (} (@code{start-kbd-macro}) Start remembering keyboard macro. @item X ) @itemx C-x ) @kindex 1301 @kbd{X )} (@code{end-kbd-macro}) Finish remembering keyboard macro. @item * @kindex 052 @kbd{*} (@code{vip-call-last-kbd-macro}) Call last remembered keyboard macro. @item X Z @itemx C-x C-z @kindex 1302 @kbd{X Z} (@code{suspend-emacs}) Suspend Emacs. @item Z Z Exit Emacs. @itemx Q Query replace. @itemx R Replace. @end table @node Vi Commands, Numeric Arguments, Misc Commands, Top @chapter Vi Commands This chapter describes Vi commands other than Ex commands implemented in VIP.

These commands can be accessed from vi mode as easily as from emacs mode.@refill @table @kbd @item C-x @itemx C-c @itemx @key{ESC} @kindex 003 @kbd{C-c} (@code{vip-ctl-c}) @kindex 0300 @kbd{C-x} (@code{vip-ctl-x}) @kindex 033 @kbd{ESC} (@code{vip-ESC}) Typing one of these keys have the same effect as typing it in emacs mode. Appropriate command will be executed according as the keys you type after it. You will be in vi mode again after the execution of the command. For instance, if you type @kbd{@key{ESC} <} (in vi mode) then the cursor will move to the beginning of the buffer and you will still be in vi mode. @item C @itemx X @kindex 103 @kbd{C} (@code{vip-ctl-c-equivalent}) @kindex 1300 @kbd{X} (@code{vip-ctl-x-equivalent}) Typing one of these keys have the effect of typing the corresponding control character in emacs mode. Moreover, if you type an upper-case character following it, that character will also be translated to the corresponding control character. Thus typing @kbd{X W} in vi mode is the same as typing @kbd{C-x C-w} in emacs mode. You will be in vi mode again after the execution of a command. @item \ @kindex 134 @kbd{\} (@code{vip-escape-to-emacs}) Escape to emacs mode. Hitting the @kbd{\} key will take you to emacs mode, and you can execute a single Emacs command. After executing the Emacs command you will be in vi mode again. You can give a count before typing @kbd{\}. Thus @kbd{5 \ +}, as well as @kbd{\ C-u 5 +}, will insert @samp{+++++} before point.@refill @end table @node Buffers and Windows, Files, Important Keys, Vi Commands @section Buffers and Windows @cindex buffer @cindex selected buffer @cindex current buffer In Emacs the text you edit is stored in a @dfn{buffer}. See GNU Emacs Manual, for details. There is always one @dfn{current} buffer, also called the @dfn{selected buffer}.@refill @cindex window @cindex modified (buffer) You can see the contents of buffers through @dfn{windows} created by Emacs. When you have multiple windows on the screen only one of them is selected. Each buffer has a unique name, and each window has a mode line which shows the name of the buffer associated with the window and other information about the status of the buffer. You can change the format of the mode line, but normally if you see @samp{**} at the beginning of a mode line it means that the buffer is @dfn{modified}. If you write out the content of the buffer to a file, then the buffer will become not modified. Also if you see @samp{%%} at the beginning of the mode line, it means that the file associated with the buffer is write protected. We have the following commands related to windows and buffers. @table @kbd @item C-n @kindex 016 @kbd{C-n} (@code{vip-next-window}) Move cursor to the next-window (@code{vip-next-window}). @item X 1 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 1} (@code{delete-other-windows}) Delete other windows and make the selected window fill the screen @*(@code{delete-other-windows}). @item X 2 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 2} (@code{split-window-vertically}) Split current window into two windows (@code{split-window-vertically}). @item X 3 @kindex 1301 @kbd{X 3} (@code{vip-buffer-in-two-windows}) Show current buffer in two windows. @item s @var{buffer} @key{RET} @kindex 163 @kbd{s} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer}) Select or create a buffer named @var{buffer} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer}). @item S @var{buffer} @key{RET} @kindex 123 @kbd{S} (@code{vip-switch-to-buffer-other-window}) Similar but select a buffer named @var{buffer} in another window @*(@code{vip-switch-to-buffer-other-window}). @item K @kindex 113 @kbd{K} (@code{vip-kill-buffer}) Kill the current buffer if it is not modified or if it is not associated with a file @*(@code{vip-kill-buffer}). @item X B @kindex 1302 @kbd{X B} (@code{list-buffers}) List the existing buffers (@code{list-buffers}). @end table @cindex buffer name completion As @dfn{buffer name completion} is provided, you have only to type in initial substring of the buffer name which is sufficient to identify it among names of existing buffers. After that, if you hit @key{TAB} the rest of the buffer name will be supplied by the system, and you can confirm it by @key{RET}. The default buffer name to switch to will also be prompted, and you can select it by giving a simple @key{RET}. See GNU Emacs Manual for details of completion. @node Files, Viewing the Buffer, Buffers and Windows, Vi Commands @section Files We have the following commands related to files. They are used to visit, save and insert files. @table @kbd @item v @var{file} @key{RET} @kindex 166 @kbd{v} (@code{vip-find-file}) Visit specified file in the current window (@code{vip-find-file}). @item V @var{file} @key{RET} @kindex 126 @kbd{V} (@code{vip-find-file-other-window}) Visit specified file in another window (@code{vip-find-file-other-window}). @item X S @kindex 1302 @kbd{X S} (@code{save-buffer}) Save current buffer to the file associated with the buffer. If no file is associated with the buffer, the name of the file to write out the content of the buffer will be asked in the minibuffer. @item X W @var{file} @key{RET} @kindex 1302 @kbd{X W} (@code{write-file}) Write current buffer into a specified file. @item X I @var{file} @key{RET} @kindex 1302 @kbd{X I} (@code{insert-file}) Insert a specified file at point. @item g @kindex 147 @kbd{g} (@code{vip-info-on-file}) Give information on the file associated with the current buffer. Tell you the name of the file associated with the buffer, the line number of the current point and total line numbers in the buffer. If no file is associated with the buffer, this fact will be indicated by the null file name @samp{""}. @end table @cindex visiting (a file) @cindex default directory In Emacs, you can edit a file by @dfn{visiting} it. If you wish to visit a file in the current window, you can just type @kbd{v}. Emacs maintains the @dfn{default directory} which is specific to each buffer. Suppose, for instance, that the default directory of the current buffer is @file{/usr/masahiko/lisp/}. Then you will get the following prompt in the minibuffer.@refill @example visit file: /usr/masahiko/lisp/ @end example @noindent @cindex file name completion If you wish to visit, say, @file{vip.el} in this directory, then you can just type @samp{vip.el} followed by @key{RET}. If the file @file{vip.el} already exists in the directory, Emacs will visit that file, and if not, the file will be created. Emacs will use the file name (@file{vip.el}, in this case) as the name of the buffer visiting the file. In order to make the buffer name unique, Emacs may append @samp{<2>}, @samp{<3>} etc., to the buffer name. As the @dfn{file name completion} is provided here, you can sometime save typing. For instance, suppose there is only one file in the default directory whose name starts with @samp{v}, that is @samp{vip.el}. Then if you just type @kbd{v @key{TAB}} then it will be completed to @samp{vip.el}. Thus, in this case, you just have to type @kbd{v v @key{TAB} @key{RET}} to visit @file{/usr/masahiko/lisp/vip.el}. Continuing the example, let us now suppose that you wished to visit the file @file{/usr/masahiko/man/vip.texinfo}. Then to the same prompt which you get after you typed @kbd{v}, you can enter @samp{/usr/masahiko/man/vip.texinfo} or @samp{../man/vip.texinfo} followed by @key{RET}. Use @kbd{V} instead of @kbd{v}, if you wish to visit a file in another window. You can verify which file you are editing by typing @kbd{g}. (You can also type @kbd{X B} to get nformation on other buffers too.) If you type @kbd{g} you will get an information like below in the echo area:@refill @example "/usr/masahiko/man/vip.texinfo" line 921 of 1949 @end example After you edited the buffer (@samp{vip.texinfo}, in our example) for a while, you may wish to save it in a file. If you wish to save it in the file associated with the buffer (@file{/usr/masahiko/man/vip.texinfo}, in this case), you can just say @kbd{X S}. If you wish to save it in another file, you can type @kbd{X W}. You will then get a similar prompt as you get for @kbd{v}, to which you can enter the file name.@refill @node Viewing the Buffer, Mark Commands, Files, Vi Commands @section Viewing the Buffer In this and next section we discuss commands for moving around in the buffer.

These commands affect the region determined by a motion command which is given to the commands as their argument. @cindex point commands @cindex line commands We classify motion commands into @dfn{point commands} and @dfn{line commands}. The point commands are as follows: @example @kbd{h}, @kbd{l}, @kbd{0}, @kbd{^}, @kbd{$}, @kbd{w}, @kbd{W}, @kbd{b}, @kbd{B}, @kbd{e}, @kbd{E}, @kbd{(}, @kbd{)}, @kbd{/}, @kbd{?}, @kbd{`}, @kbd{f}, @kbd{F}, @kbd{t}, @kbd{T}, @kbd{%}, @kbd{;}, @kbd{,} @end example @noindent The line commands are as follows: @example @kbd{j}, @kbd{k}, @kbd{+}, @kbd{-}, @kbd{H}, @kbd{M}, @kbd{L}, @kbd{@{}, @kbd{@}}, @kbd{G}, @kbd{'} @end example @noindent @cindex expanding (region) If a point command is given as an argument to a modifying command, the region determined by the point command will be affected by the modifying command. On the other hand, if a line command is given as an argument to a modifying command, the region determined by the line command will be enlarged so that it will become the smallest region properly containing the region and consisting of whole lines (we call this process @dfn{expanding the region}), and then the enlarged region will be affected by the modifying command. @menu * Delete Commands:: Commands for deleting text. * Yank Commands:: Commands for yanking text in Vi's sense. * Put Back Commands:: Commands for putting back deleted/yanked text. * Change Commands:: Commands for changing text. * Repeating and Undoing Modifications:: @end menu @node Delete Commands, Yank Commands, Modifying Commands, Modifying Commands @subsection Delete Commands @table @kbd @item d @var{motion-command} @kindex 1440 @kbd{d} (@code{vip-command-argument}) Delete the region determined by the motion command @var{motion-command}. @end table @noindent For example, @kbd{d $} will delete the region between point and end of current line since @kbd{$} is a point command that moves point to end of line. @kbd{d G} will delete the region between the beginning of current line and end of the buffer, since @kbd{G} is a line command. A count given to the command above will become the count for the associated motion command. Thus, @kbd{3 d w} will delete three words. @kindex 042 @kbd{"} (@code{vip-command-argument}) It is also possible to save the deleted text into a register you specify. For example, you can say @kbd{" t 3 d w} to delete three words and save it to register @kbd{t}. The name of a register is a lower-case letter between @kbd{a} and @kbd{z}. If you give an upper-case letter as an argument to a delete command, then the deleted text will be appended to the content of the register having the corresponding lower-case letter as its name. So, @kbd{" T d w} will delete a word and append it to register @kbd{t}. Other modifying commands also accept a register name as their argument, and we will not repeat similar explanations. We have more delete commands as below. @table @kbd @item d d @kindex 1442 @kbd{d d} Delete a line.

Given a register name argument, the content of the named register will be put back. Given a count, the command will be repeated that many times. This command also checks if the text to put back ends with a new line character, and if so the text will be put below the current line (@code{vip-put-back}). @item P @kindex 120 @kbd{P} (@code{vip-Put-back}) Insert at point most recently deleted/yanked text from anonymous register. Given a register name argument, the content of the named register will be put back. Given a count, the command will be repeated that many times. This command also checks if the text to put back ends with a new line character, and if so the text will be put above the current line rather than at point (@code{vip-Put-back}). @end table @noindent @cindex number register Thus, @kbd{" c p} will put back the content of the register @kbd{c} into the buffer. It is also possible to specify @dfn{number register} which is a numeral between @kbd{1} and @kbd{9}. If the number register @var{n} is specified, @var{n}-th previously deleted/yanked text will be put back. It is an error to specify a number register for the delete/yank commands. @node Change Commands, Repeating and Undoing Modifications, Put Back Commands, Modifying Commands @subsection Change Commands Most commonly used change command takes the following form. @table @kbd @item c @var{motion-command} @kindex 1430 @kbd{c} (@code{vip-command-argument}) Replace the content of the region determined by the motion command @var{motion-command} by the text you type. If the motion command is a point command then you will type the text into minibuffer, and if the motion command is a line command then the region will be deleted first and you can insert the text in @var{insert mode}. @end table @noindent For example, if point is at the beginning of a word @samp{foo} and you wish to change it to @samp{bar}, you can type @kbd{c w}. Then, as @kbd{w} is a point command, you will get the prompt @samp{foo =>} in the minibuffer, for which you can type @kbd{b a r @key{RET}} to complete the change command.@refill @table @kbd @item c c @kindex 1432 @kbd{c c} Change a line.

It is also very easy to undo changes made by modifying commands. @table @kbd @item u @kindex 165 @kbd{u} (@code{vip-undo}) Undo the last change. You can undo more by repeating undo by the repeat command @samp{.}. For example, you can undo 5 previous changes by typing @samp{u....}. If you type @samp{uu}, then the second @samp{u} undoes the first undo command (@code{vip-undo}). @item . @kindex 056 @kbd{.} (@code{vip-repeat}) Repeat the last modifying command.

(@xref{Customizing Key Bindings}, for details.) Binding @kbd{C-h} to @code{help-command} has the effect of making the meaning of @kbd{C-h} uniform among emacs, vi and insert modes. When you enter insert mode, VIP records point as the start point of insertion, and when you leave insert mode the region between point and start point is saved for later use by repeat command etc. Therefore, repeat command will not really repeat insertion if you move point by emacs commands while in insert mode. @node Ex Commands, Ex Command Reference, Commands in Insert Mode, Top @chapter Ex Commands @kindex 072 @kbd{:} (@code{vip-ex}) In vi mode, you can execute an Ex command @var{ex-command} by typing: @example @kbd{:@: @var{ex-command} @key{RET}} @end example Every Ex command follows the following pattern: @example @var{address command} @kbd{!}@: @var{parameters count flags} @end example @noindent @cindex address where all parts are optional. For the syntax of @dfn{address}, the reader is referred to the reference manual of Ex. @cindex magic @cindex regular expression In the current version of VIP, searching by Ex commands is always @dfn{magic}. That is, search patterns are always treated as @dfn{regular expressions}. For example, a typical forward search would be invoked by @kbd{:/@var{pat}/}. If you wish to include @samp{/} as part of @var{pat} you must preceded it by @samp{\}. VIP strips off these @kbd{\}'s before @kbd{/} and the resulting @var{pat} becomes the actual search pattern. Emacs provides a different and richer class or regular expressions than Vi/Ex, and VIP uses Emacs' regular expressions. See GNU Emacs Manual for details of regular expressions. Several Ex commands can be entered in a line by separating them by a pipe character @samp{|}. @menu * Ex Command Reference:: Explain all the Ex commands available in VIP. @end menu @node Ex Command Reference, Customization, Ex Commands, Ex Commands @section Ex Command Reference In this section we briefly explain all the Ex commands supported by VIP. Most Ex commands expect @var{address} as their argument, and they use default addresses if they are not explicitly given. In the following, such default addresses will be shown in parentheses. Most command names can and preferably be given in abbreviated forms. In the following, optional parts of command names will be enclosed in brackets. For example, @samp{co[py]} will mean that copy command can be give as @samp{co} or @samp{cop} or @samp{copy}. If @var{command} is empty, point will move to the beginning of the line specified by the @var{address}. If @var{address} is also empty, point will move to the beginning of the current line. @cindex flag Some commands accept @dfn{flags} which are one of @kbd{p}, @kbd{l} and @kbd{#}. If @var{flags} are given, the text affected by the commands will be displayed on a temporary window, and you will be asked to hit return to continue. In this way, you can see the text affected by the commands before the commands will be executed. If you hit @kbd{C-g} instead of @key{RET} then the commands will be aborted. Note that the meaning of @var{flags} is different in VIP from that in Vi/Ex. @table @kbd @item (.,.@:) co[py] @var{addr} @var{flags} @itemx (.,.@:) t @var{addr} @var{flags} Place a copy of specified lines after @var{addr}. If @var{addr} is @kbd{0}, it will be placed before the first line. @item (.,.@:) d[elete] @var{register} @var{count} @var{flags} Delete specified lines. Text will be saved in a named @var{register} if a lower-case letter is given, and appended to a register if a capital letter is given. @item e[dit] !@: +@var{addr} @var{file} @itemx e[x] !@: +@var{addr} @var{file} @itemx vi[sual] !@: +@var{addr} @var{file} Edit a new file @var{file} in the current window. The command will abort if current buffer is modified, which you can override by giving @kbd{!}. If @kbd{+}@var{addr} is given, @var{addr} becomes the current line. @item file Give information about the current file. @item (1,$) g[lobal] !@: /@var{pat}/ @var{cmds} @itemx (1,$) v /@var{pat}/ @var{cmds} Among specified lines first mark each line which matches the regular expression @var{pat}, and then execute @var{cmds} on each marked line. If @kbd{!}@: is given, @var{cmds} will be executed on each line not matching @var{pat}. @kbd{v} is same as @kbd{g!}. @item (.,.+1) j[oin] !@: @var{count} @var{flags} Join specified lines into a line. Without @kbd{!}, a space character will be inserted at each junction. @item (.@:) k @var{ch} @itemx (.@:) mar[k] @var{ch} Mark specified line by a lower-case character @var{ch}. Then the addressing form @kbd{'}@var{ch} will refer to this line. No white space is required between @kbd{k} and @var{ch}. A white space is necessary between @kbd{mark} and @var{ch}, however. @item map @var{ch} @var{rhs} Define a macro for vi mode. After this command, the character @var{ch} will be expanded to @var{rhs} in vi mode. @item (.,.@:) m[ove] @var{addr} Move specified lines after @var{addr}. @item (.@:) pu[t] @var{register} Put back previously deleted or yanked text. If @var{register} is given, the text saved in the register will be put back; otherwise, last deleted or yanked text will be put back. @item q[uit] ! Quit from Emacs. If modified buffers with associated files exist, you will be asked whether you wish to save each of them. At this point, you may choose not to quit, by hitting @kbd{C-g}. If @kbd{!}@: is given, exit from Emacs without saving modified buffers. @item (.@:) r[ead] @var{file} Read in the content of the file @var{file} after the specified line. @item (.@:) r[ead] !@: @var{command} Read in the output of the shell command @var{command} after the specified line. @item se[t] Set a variable's value. @xref{Customizing Constants}, for the list of variables you can set. @item sh[ell] Run a subshell in a window. @item (.,.@:) s[ubstitute] /@var{pat}/@var{repl}/ @var{options} @var{count} @var{flags} @itemx (.,.@:) & @var{options} @var{count} @var{flags} On each specified line, the first occurrence of string matching regular expression @var{pat} is replaced by replacement pattern @var{repl}. Option characters are @kbd{g} and @kbd{c}. If global option character @kbd{g} appears as part of @var{options}, all occurrences are substituted. If confirm option character @kbd{c} appears, you will be asked to give confirmation before each substitution. If @kbd{/@var{pat}/@var{repl}/} is missing, the last substitution is repeated. @item st[op] Suspend Emacs. @item ta[g] @var{tag} @cindex tag @cindex selected tags table Find first definition of @var{tag}. If no @var{tag} is given, previously given @var{tag} is used and next alternate definition is find. By default, the file @file{TAGS} in the current directory becomes the @dfn{selected tags table}. You can select another tags table by @kbd{set} command. @xref{Customizing Constants}, for details. @item und[o] Undo the last change. @item unm[ap] @var{ch} The macro expansion associated with @var{ch} is removed. @item ve[rsion] Tell the version number of VIP. @item (1,$) w[rite] !@: @var{file} Write out specified lines into file @var{file}. If no @var{file} is given, text will be written to the file associated to the current buffer. Unless @kbd{!}@: is given, if @var{file} is different from the file associated to the current buffer and if the file @var{file} exists, the command will not be executed. Unlike Ex, @var{file} becomes the file associated to the current buffer. @item (1,$) w[rite]>> @var{file} Write out specified lines at the end of file @var{file}. @var{file} becomes the file associated to the current buffer. @item (1,$) wq !@: @var{file} Same as @kbd{write} and then @kbd{quit}. If @kbd{!}@: is given, same as @kbd{write !}@: then @kbd{quit}. @item (.,.) y[ank] @var{register} @var{count} Save specified lines into register @var{register}. If no register is specified, text will be saved in an anonymous register. @item @var{addr} !@: @var{command} Execute shell command @var{command}. The output will be shown in a new window. If @var{addr} is given, specified lines will be used as standard input to @var{command}. @item ($) = Print the line number of the addressed line. @item (.,.) > @var{count} @var{flags} Shift specified lines to the right. The variable @code{vip-shift-width} (default value is 8) determines the amount of shift. @item (.,.) < @var{count} @var{flags} Shift specified lines to the left. The variable @code{vip-shift-width} (default value is 8) determines the amount of shift. @item (.,.@:) ~ @var{options} @var{count} @var{flags} Repeat the previous @kbd{substitute} command using previous search pattern as @var{pat} for matching. @end table The following Ex commands are available in Vi, but not implemented in VIP. @example @kbd{abbreviate}, @kbd{list}, @kbd{next}, @kbd{print}, @kbd{preserve}, @kbd{recover}, @kbd{rewind}, @kbd{source}, @kbd{unabbreviate}, @kbd{xit}, @kbd{z} @end example @node Customization, Customizing Constants, Ex Command Reference, Top @chapter Customization If you have a file called @file{.vip} in your home directory, then it will also be loaded when VIP is loaded.
