It is probably a good idea to start with a good text editor and a
book, but trying to learn vi and web design at the same time might be
a bit overwhelming!
That's precisely why I didn't point it to GVIM for Windows, *lol*.
And yes, a good book, online tutorial (I even like the CHM format) is
the way to start, I had big trouble using GUIs, couldn't even create a
simple table without a wizard, venturing in the world of text-only was
the way to learn. Of course, you don't have to be a dinossaur and use
vi or nano or notepad. You can use syntax highlight, completion,
auto-ident, line numbering and snippets. But you must KNOW how to do
it by hand in case you have no other option.
