VimNotion Editor Docs

VimNotion was built to be basically like Vim for notes and documents. The base editor has all of the base vim motions for navigating and editing a file.

However, VimNotion does not have all of the commands included in Vim, opting to include the most important ones for a notes and documents app. Here"s what"s included:

to save a file

:w

to close a file WITHOUT saving

:q

to close a file AFTER saving

:wq

to split screen vertically

:vsplit

:vs

to split screen horizontally

:split

to open a new tab

:tabnew

VimNotion"s keybindings are built-in with the editor for common actions like inserting images and rendering markdown. While we don"t offer configurable keybindings at this time, the default keybindings should feel natural and intuitive.

to render [m]arkdown

<Space>m

to [s]earch all files

<Space>s

to [i]nsert an [i]mage

<Space>i

to [p]ublish a page publically

<Space>p

to navigate [w]indows after splitting your view

<Space>w

VimNotion"s file directory is heavily inspired by oil.nvim

Open the file directory with

-

Once the sidebar is open, create new directories (folders) by typing the directory name followed by / on its own line

new_folder/

create new files by typing the file name without an ending /

new_file

You can also rename, copy, and delete files and directories by deleting their lines in the sidebar.

Like the normal VimNotion editor, use

:w

to save your directory changes
