Hello!
I am pleased to announce a new version of my Vim Reference Guide ebook.
This is intended as a concise learning resource for beginner to intermediate level Vim users. It has more in common with cheatsheets than a typical text book. Topics like Regular Expressions and Macros have more detailed explanations and examples due to their complexity. I hope this guide would make it much easier for you to discover Vim features and learning resources.

Did you know that Vim has an easy mode, which is actually very hard to use for those already familiar with Vim? See my blog post for more details!
I would highly appreciate it if you’d let me know how you felt about this book. It could be anything from a simple thank you, pointing out a typo, mistakes in code snippets, which aspects of the book worked for you (or didn’t!) and so on. Reader feedback is essential and especially so for self-published authors.
Happy learning :)
I just use xkill (if on X11) or reboot the system lol
I prefer turning off all the breakers in my house, but whatever floats your boat!
Xkill doesn’t kill the process, it just stops showing it to you
I can kill it from htop then. At least xkill removes the annoying window.
