This fails to mention the most vi-in-a-shell-yness:
Press "v" and launch your currently typed command into a vim (or whatever $EDITOR is set to) editing buffer.
Very useful for adhoc-but-long if or while statements.
- worldofprasanna 10y agoHi .. I couldn t do this .. Pressing "v" enables visual mode and only the text is selected. https://dougblack.io/words/zsh-vi-mode.html https://dougblack.io/words/zsh-vi-mode.html Above link explains the usage, but I couldn t use it for some reason even after setting EDITOR variable.
