============
It's vim!

Typical .vimrc
------------------
Here's what a typical ``.vimrc`` looks like for me::

    if has('syntax') && (&t_Co > 2)
        syntax on
    endif

    set history=50
    set wildmode=list:longest,full
    set showmode
    set showcmd
    set smartcase
    set shiftwidth=4
    set tabstop=4
    set shiftround
    set expandtab
    set autoindent

    autocmd BufRead *.py set smartindent cinwords=if,elif,else,for,while,try,except, finally,def,class

Commands
-------------
I search and replace globally a lot::

    :%s/before/after/g

Tricks
-------------
I often want to pull a particular gnarly line or two from another file; here's
the command I use to grab three lines of context around 'phrase'::

    :r!grep -A 3 'phrase' ../otherfile.txt
