Interesting. I typically use just d3w. 3daW seems to delete 3 lines for me, the same result as d3<enter>. Another favorite command is d or c followed by a number and then the right arrow key, for manipulating letters instead of words. In any case, I can be way more productive with just a few commands (maybe 3 or 4 commands or concepts) in Vim than in almost any GUI editor. In my experience, Vim users almost always find this to be true for them as well. Vim really hits the sweet spot for productivity and usability. The only thing about Vim that I find clunky is how code folding macros work, and also code completion hacks (which I have never needed anyway). -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
