Keep in mind that you can run it on both ports; you can specify the Port option twice in sshd_config: Port 22 Port 443

Yes, I think you've nailed it. See my own reply to this comment.

The time you can save with Vim can be significant, depending on the task. However what I think is far more valuable is that Vim doesn't get in the way; it doesn't impede the all-important "flow", and perhaps most importantly it stops you g

If nothing else this might help put the kibosh on the intensely annoying way Facebook users tend to use cutesy fake names so that you don't know who the hell they are when they comment on your posts.

That's one of my very favourite pieces of tech-related comedy. I still laugh every time.

Awesome stuff! I love your blog, by the way. It gives me a standard to which to aspire.

Yeah, I corrected that after I noticed a few people commenting to that effect. :)

That's the usual attitude, I think. "I'm glad I know how to use it now, but I hope I never have to."

gqap uses a paragraph as a text object so you don't have to be at the start of the paragraph for it to work, just somewhere inside it.

That, and heading off future competition. If Google were planning, for example, on releasing a multi-protocol web chat application of their own in the next few weeks, this would be a well-timed move. Using Meebo's code base to make their ow

The only thing I dislike about Vimium is it doesn't work on the "New Tab" window.

Thanks for that; I clarified and gave you a footnote.

I found NERDTree had no advantages for me over just plain :Vex. I'm sure it does have other features, but how whizbang does a file browser need to be, anyway? Besides, anything you want to do outside of choosing files to edit in your editor

Using Chrome and Vimium on sites like Reddit and Hacker News almost feels like cheating -- "I shouldn't be able to consume this amount of information without even having to move my wrists."

I'm very pleased it was useful. I'm surprised to see it hit HN; I wrote it back in January and it had a lukewarm reaction on Reddit and not a peep from HN. Then again, I normally don't submit new articles to HN.

Vim only seems hard because it's so profoundly different. If you persist for even one or two evenings, I'm pretty confident most Hacker News readers are easily sharp enough to be back up to their old speed in Notepad-type editors, and fro

Just wait until someone names a whizbang plugin "nerdsboggler-jimcrickey.vim" out of sheer spite! Nowadays I do load a few plugins myself on the machines where I do a lot of coding or writing, but the only one that's useful every single day

Yes, gt and gT are the way to do this. Admittedly I wouldn't personally recommend those mappings, because both already correspond to commands I use quite frequently. By default Y is synonym for yy, to yank a whole line, and T<char>

I could definitely do something like that. Probably not in the walkthrough style, which I don't really like, but definitely listing keystrokes and commands to use. I'll write and post it sometime in the next week or so, if you're still inte

What kind of things would you like to know? I'm open to writing a followup.

Hmm, yes. :set hidden is recommended so often in pretty much every introductory tutorial that in places I've assumed people who have basic familiarity with Vim are already using it. In retrospect this probably wasn't wise of me; I don't use

Author here. That's not quite what I meant; mapping keystrokes to Vim's tab commands is well and good, but it requires some serious kludges to make Vim behave the same way as, say, Notepad++, where one open tab equals one open file, and tha
