M-F4 works in GVim, and ^s is unmapped in all modes (^s is off-limits when talking to a terminal).

YAY! While looking for a shortcut for saving, I found ZQ, quit without saving! I had been looking for it and it was right below ZZ (write and quit) ... >_< I should add a mapping for ZA to :qa!.


Say I want to sort a list that is part of a file, in Vim, I'd just select the list with v (just found out there's V, for linewise selection, I'll be using it every day now :)), some movement commands (there is probably one to select until the next empty line, ah, }), and then %!sort to sort the list.

In any other editor... If I'm lucky I'll find a menu option, or even a pipe function (never seen one AFAIK), otherwise I will have to use an external tool... I think MS Word can sort selections :)

Oh well, that's just to show that everything is so easy in Vim even though it took me 300 hours in MS Paint at 4 AM to write this reply.
