Visual Mode (Selection)

Visual Mode can be thought of like 'selection' in other non-modal code editors - it shows a visual representation of a motion, and any operator is applied to the 'selected' text.

There are three variations of visual mode, and they can be entered from normal mode:

  • Line mode: V
  • Character mode: v
  • Block mode: Ctrlv (although when this key chord is in use to paste, an alternative is Ctrlq)

When in visual mode, pressing a [motion] key - like h, w, etc - will extend the visual range.

Visual mode is a great to learn Vim motions, because you get immediate visual feedback!
