Dear Linux&Coder users,
This thread is to show off what can do VIM.
VIM is a versatile, light-weight, fabulous, file editor. It dates from the origin of Linux, Amiga, with ancestor VI. VIM is probably today the best file editor.
Simply share your ~/.vimrc and you can as well ideally post a screenshot.

Here is mine, simple and efficient:
Code:

" SOME VIM FUNCTIONS!!
fu! GetChar()
let charadd = input("Enter char to comment lines: ")
return charadd
endfunction
function Comment(fl, ll, paracom)
let i=a:fl
let comment=a:paracom
while i<=a:ll
let cl=getline(i)
let cl2=comment.cl
call setline(i, cl2)
let i=i+1
endwhile
echo "Comments added."
endfunction
