Perfection as a tutorial, and also a great reference. The only downside was the lack of a summary page like the Emacs book.


I'm a Vim user myself, so the support for Vi clones was an excellent idea, as most rarely use vanilla Vi anymore. Not if they want to defend themselves to Emacs people anyway. ;-)


A truly great piece of work.
