Didn't know about the :terminal command - thanks for that tip! I used to type Ctrl-Z, do my stuff and go back to vi using fg command in the window. Having it in a split is handier :)
I find using file-specific marks (with uppercase letters as mark names) more interesting than splits for most of my use cases. Of course some cross-referencing and diff-ing can benefit from having all side to side, but I usually want to focus on one thing at a time. Having the marks allows for quick, specific buffer jumping without having to find it with :b, with added benefit of having a specific line selected
I watch everyone of your youtubes. I use vim, and I did learn somethings today. May I make a comment or two? When you edit together the little snippets into the longer one, please allow 1/4 second between topic changes. Watch your UA-cam of this topic. If I was to take notes, for my needs, it would was difficult. I stopped, backed up and replayed. My other question is to say, the corona virus may be a good thing for you. We say Canadians say "When one door closes, another door opens". The future looks bright. Take care. Leslie from Montreal
nice! I just start using vim splite today, because tire of swithing the windows. this give me more info. The split terminal really handy, i dont need to open another terminal for occationally compile the program that take up the space anymore.
You can also resize with C-w + and C-w - to move them slightly, and the typical vim repeat behavior works on window actions as well, so sometimes I'll type something like 10 or 50 and then do one of those binds and it's as if I hit them that many times. You can also include moving between splits in your vim macros which is really cool. I've used it for macros that delete a line from two files open next to each other, saves them and puts me back where I started.
Simply doing "yy" for yank line and "pp" for put only works inside your current vim instance. To copy and paste between two different instances of vim, you have to copy to a different register. So you would have to do something like "+yy (copy to the + register) and "+p (paste from + register).
as a vim user, i hate vim splits. I need to use them because that's just how you do things with vim but as a long term goal i plan on switching to something that works differently, maybe vis. My problem with splits, first of all is that split commands are badly intertwined with buffer commands, i.e. closing a buffer (:bd) will also close the split when it should definitely not and you need custom commands to avoid this behavior. And more importantly, between tiling wms and terminal multiplexers, there is a ton of ways to manage your split layout among your whole workflow in a single and much better way. The very idea that a text editor is doing window layout management is not Unix-like and honestly requiring an extra layer of hotkeys to manage windows at it's own level. The problem is that you cannot really do otherwise with vim, since the whole vim session (variables, paths, open buffers) is bound to the vim layout of the instance running. What i would prefer, and that's why im looking to switch eventually, is to have a text editor that runs in a client-server like architecture, where you can open as many new instances of the editor as you want that have access to everything on a server through IPC, i.e. an instance of the editor is just a viewport of the actual editor server running in the background. Then you do your tiling with tmux or w/e.
I don't see a good reson why you shouldn't have the + buffer as the default buffer for copy-pasting... Why didn't the UNIX philosophy include "Fool-proof defaults"?
I just find it more comfortable and faster, and I do use it a lot. In fact, is one of my favorite features really. When you are coding in a large codebase, you will find yourself splitting screens a lot mostly if you learned how to do it efficiently with the right keystrokes. Its not only a matter of yanking and pasting but about speed, opening another instance of nvim in tmux and getting to the file you wanna open is much slower than opening nerdtree and pressing "s" or "i" for splitting, or using a ag with fzf and using a shortcut to open a new buffer in a split window. Also, closing a buffer is really quick if you configured yourself a shortcut yourself to do the job. I use Ctrl-C for that. Cmon, u gotta admit, its just better and faster than using tmux.
I've found it useful to remap 's' to "control-w'. This has the advantage of shortening all the windows commands in one shot. Typing "s h" is easier than "control-w h" and is even easier than Derek's "control-h" because you don't have to hold the 's' while you press the 'h' It's not a great loss if you don't have the regular 's' command because, if you need it, 'cl' can be used as a substitute. :-) See the help page for the 's' command.
In my config I took inspiration from spacemacs and made space the leader key and mapped several of the window binds to spc-w and then something else. Basically what they were in spacemacs.
exclusively uses tiling window managers. still gets excited about splits and running shells inside vim. personally I find that a very emacs-y approach to vim

You should try modularizing your init.vim: ~/.config/nvim/init.vim: sources files from ~/.config/nvim/nvim.d/ Files in ~/.config/nvim/nvim.d are 10-compatibility, 20-plugins, 30-settings, 40-maps and 50-autocmds.

I'm not sure how usefill the terminal command is, becuase tmux can help with all that [also theres a plugin for tmux thatll allow you to just use ctrl + hjkl for movement instead of normal tmux stuff]. I also use tabs so having the same terminal on every tab would often be nice. Still a good tip ty 👍
I find using alt+hjkl for navigating splits easier and ctrl+hjkl for resizing the splits. and i pretty much use vim as terminal multiplexer by remapping alt+\ to open a vertical split terminal alt+shit+\ to a horizontal split terminal ctrl+\ to a terminal in a tab. alt+u and alt+i to navigate tabs. alt+f to maximize the split vertically and horizontally and alt+= to even out all split sizes. works pretty well as a tmux replacement other than the sessions part. oh and u can use autocmd to make terminals not have line numbers. You can be even lazier and remap alt+q to quit alt+w to write and use alt+shit+q to execute q! and ctrl-q for qa!

Bind it to whatever. I set it to the arrow keys because Ctrl + hjkl are already binded in my config, and my arrow keys on my Ergo Dox keyboard are in the correct vim order (left, down, up, right) just two rows under the home row. But I understand alot of Vimmers avoid the arrow keys for fear of creating bad habits.

A terminal inside vim? What kind of sorcery is this?! I just tried it and I'm blown away that I never knew about this. However, I'm a bit confused. When I use :terminal, the terminal doesn't seem to be modal. I can immediately type into the terminal. That also means I can no longer enter commands into vim, nor can I switch to a different pane. The only thing I can do to get back to the document is to close the terminal. What am I missing?

Why not use tmux to handle splitting? Then you can work outside of vim with multiple programs. I used to do all the splitting in vim and it took me a while to have my muscle memory trained to use tmux keybindings for splitting but it definitely has advantages over using vim as a 'window manager'
I love me some vim learning. One thing, though, I'd like to know if it's possible to yank/put among files in separate terminal windows. Sometimes I just prefer to have files open here and there (Sometimes it even makes sense.) and need to copy text from one to the other. While old fashioned copy/paste or middle-mouse paste work too, it'd be nice to treat those separate windows a little like vim splits.

so you want a terminal? yes you want vim mode? yeeess you want indication of what more you are in in that terminal? ohhh yes please you dont want to go to another stupid shell that does exactly that (looking at you fish)? absolutely. then open a terminal in vim lol. i guess someone should be making a configuration that automatically starts a terminal in vim and kills the terminal that contains vim containing a terminal when vim closes. seems like a straight forward enough thing to do.

thq so much for this, as a new vim lover, this was a huge help
I hate key chords so I remapped w to . . . maybe it's not a great idea but I find it works for me.
This is really useful! I usually use buffers in a tab-like mode, but splits well used will be useful for me.
Now I have one question: why should I use splits in vim instead of using multiple windows in a tiling wm?
Just off the top of my head, copying and pasting (yanking and putting, that is) between documents is easier is they are in the same vim instance.
Simply doing "yy" for yank line and "pp" for put only works inside your current vim instance. To copy and paste between two different instances of vim, you have to copy to a different register. So you would have to do something like "+yy (copy to the + register) and "+p (paste from + register).

then open a terminal in vim lol. i guess someone should be making a configuration that automatically starts a terminal in vim and kills the terminal that contains vim containing a terminal when vim closes. seems like a straight forward enough thing to do.

I am a good user of Vim and Assembly fan, but writing code into Vim is kind of weird)))

Whatever floats your boat dude but maybe it's worth giving Vim a bit more of a chance. If you wear it for a while you may come to like it.
yeah some of its features are more geared towards higher level languages (yi" for example) but i dont see why assembly should be big deal in vim
Sigh, don't ever rebind the default editor commands. Then you will never learn and there is no point in teaching others your rebinds either.
