I've been using Vim for many years and felt like there was constantly stuff to learn. So a partner and I started an email newsletter that sends tips twice a week:

The idea was that by forcing myself to write about Vim consistently, I would learn and absorb more and boy has it worked.

Um. I think that's wrong, though. Pressing c-u just erases to the beginning of the line in insert mode, it's not an undo.

Ah, I guess should've tried before saying. Just excited there's a way.
