Hi,

I suspect there are quite some Vim users on this mailinglist.

Here's an email from Drew Neil (@nelstrom) about the Vim workshops he'll give on the 23rd and 24th of July, in Amsterdam.

With kind regards,

Niels Bom

Vim is a fast and efficient text editor that will make you a faster and more efficient developer. It’s available on almost every OS—if you master Vim, you’ll never need another text editor.

I run the Vimcasts.org blog/podcast, where I've published many instructional videos about how to use Vim. I've just finished writing Practical Vim, which is now available from the Pragmatic Bookshelf. I'm eager to get out there and meet other Vim users, to share the best tips and tricks that I picked up while researching my book. I'll be touring around Europe in July, running Vim masterclasses in London, Paris, Amsterdam, and Barcelona.

My workshops last 3 hours, and they cover some of the most important features of Vim. I'll show you how to make Vim's modes work for you, rather than against you. We'll spend time studying Vim's most important feature: the dot command, which lets you repeat your last change. Once you've learned the secrets of the dot command, you'll be able to complete repetitive tasks effortlessly. You can find more details here:

The early bird price of £95 (approx. €118) is available until Tuesday, 10th July. After that, the price goes up to £110 (€137). You can register for my Amsterdam workshops here:

Monday, 23 July: http://amsterdam-vimcasts-eve-1.eventbrite.com/

Tuesday, 24 July: http://amsterdam-vimcasts-eve-2.eventbrite.com/

These workshops are aimed at the intermediate user looking to level up their Vim skills. Come and see how Vim can blow your mind (or your money back).

If you can think of anyone who might be interested, please do me the favour of forwarding them this email. And if you've any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch.

Thanks!

Drew Neil
