Do not to
Both Vim and GVim have menubars with menus and submenus and, in
addition, a popup menu that, at least for a very beginner, covers
(maybe) 90% of what they may want to do (once they've got
basic modal editing down).
Though, it is also true that they will quickly out grow the

Vi is present on nearly every *nix system in existance, from big
servers to whatever is in your refridgerator. It is also on OSX.
Vi is essentially a subset of vim. If you know vim you know vi. If you
constantly need to work on random systems anywhere - you are stuck

Even notepad can do things Vim can't: Open registry dump files!
So use the right tool for a job. And if you want to learn about Vim -
and you're helpless - then ask somebody knowing how

In my personal opinion, saying that "Vim's learning curve is steep"
is nothing but a gross exaggeration. Why should it be? Are Vim's
potential users computer illiterates, incapable of adapting to simple

What I think happens sometimes is that someone is perhaps is for the first
time stuck with only his Linux tty and has to fix something. The only
editor he has is vi/vim he knows how to pass a file as an argument. He
