vimtutor

VIMTUTOR(1)						      General Commands Manual						       VIMTUTOR(1)

NAME

       vimtutor - the Vim tutor

SYNOPSIS

       vimtutor [-g] [language]

DESCRIPTION

       Vimtutor starts the Vim tutor.  It copies the tutor file first, so that it can be modified without changing the original file.

       The Vimtutor is useful for people that want to learn their first Vim commands.

       The optional argument -g starts vimtutor with gvim rather than vim, if the GUI version of vim is available, or falls back to Vim if gvim is
       not found.

       The optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language, like "it" or "es".  If the [language] argument is missing, the  lan-
       guage  of  the current locale will be used.  If a tutor in this language is available, it will be used.	Otherwise the English version will
       be used.

       Vim is always started in Vi compatible mode.

FILES

       /usr/share/vim/vim72/tutor/tutor[.language]
		      The Vimtutor text file(s).

       /usr/share/vim/vim72/tutor/tutor.vim
		      The Vim script used to copy the Vimtutor text file.

AUTHOR

       The Vimtutor was originally written for Vi by Michael C. Pierce and Robert K. Ware, Colorado  School  of  Mines	using  ideas  supplied	by
       Charles Smith, Colorado State University.  E-mail: bware@mines.colorado.edu.
       It was modified for Vim by Bram Moolenaar.  For the names of the translators see the tutor files.
