| Feature | Description |

| **LSP** | completion, go-to-def, hover, rename, code actions — pure VimScript ([vim-lsp](https://github.com/prabirshrestha/vim-lsp)) |
| **Lint + format** | [ALE](https://github.com/dense-analysis/ale) runs black, prettier, gofmt, rustfmt on save |
| **Fuzzy find** | files, buffers, grep, tags, marks, commands — [FZF](https://github.com/junegunn/fzf.vim) |
| **Git** | status, diff, blame, push, pull, conflict markers — [fugitive](https://github.com/tpope/vim-fugitive) + [gitgutter](https://github.com/airblade/vim-gitgutter) |
| **Zen mode** | `,zen` — [Goyo](https://github.com/junegunn/goyo.vim) + [Limelight](https://github.com/junegunn/limelight.vim) |
| **Run file** | `,cr` — auto-detects Python, Go, Rust, JS, C, Shell, and more |
| **Markdown** | live preview in browser (`,mp`), table of contents (`,mt`) |
| **Diagnostics** | `:ChopsticksStatus` — see what's installed, what's missing, how to fix it |
| **TTY-aware** | degrades gracefully on SSH, console, slow links — never breaks |

================================================================================
This tutorial teaches the key features of the chopsticks Vim configuration.
It assumes you already know basic Vim (if not, run :Tutor first).
Leader key is , (comma) throughout this tutorial.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 1: SURVIVAL BASICS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These four commands get you out of any situation:
1. Press Esc or type jk to return to Normal mode
2. Type ,w to save the current file
3. Type ,x to save and quit
4. Type ,q to quit (without saving)
TIP: You can also press Ctrl+s to save from ANY mode (normal, insert,
or visual). Try it now — press i to enter insert mode, then Ctrl+s
to save without leaving insert mode.
When completely lost, press ,? to open the cheat sheet with every
keybinding. Press q to close it.
>>> Try it now: press ,? then read through the sheet, then press q
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 2: FINDING FILES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
chopsticks uses FZF (fuzzy finder) for fast navigation.
Ctrl+p Fuzzy find files (git-aware — ignores .gitignore'd files)
,b Search open buffers
,fh Recent file history
,rg Search file contents with ripgrep
,rG Search for the word under your cursor
>>> Try it now: press Ctrl+p and start typing a filename
You can also browse files with the built-in file browser:
,e Open netrw file browser in current window
,E Open netrw in a vertical split
Inside netrw:
Enter Open file
- Go up one directory
% Create new file
d Create new directory
gh Toggle hidden files
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 3: CODE INTELLIGENCE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
chopsticks uses vim-lsp for code intelligence — no Node.js required.
First, install a language server for your filetype:
:LspInstallServer (auto-detects the language)
:LspStatus (check if it's running)
Once a server is running, these keys become available:
gd Go to definition
gy Go to type definition
gi Go to implementation
gr List all references
K Show hover documentation
[g / ]g Jump to previous / next diagnostic
,rn Rename symbol under cursor
,ca Code action (auto-fix)
,f Format buffer (or selection in visual mode)
,o File outline (symbols)
>>> Open a source file and try: gd on a function call, then Ctrl+o
to jump back
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 4: EDITING POWER
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These editing features make chopsticks faster than vanilla Vim.
EASYMOTION — jump anywhere on screen:
Press s then type two characters from your target location.
Matching positions light up — press the highlighted letter to jump.
>>> Try it now: press s then type two letters you can see on screen
MOVE LINES — rearrange code without cut/paste:
Alt+j Move current line down
Alt+k Move current line up
(Works in visual mode too — select lines first with V )
SURROUND — change surrounding characters:
cs"' Change surrounding " to '
cs'<div> Change surrounding ' to <div>...</div>
ds( Delete surrounding parentheses
ysiw" Surround word with "
COMMENT — toggle comments:
gc Toggle comment (works in visual mode on selections)
gcc Toggle comment on current line
VISUAL FEEDBACK:
- Yanked text flashes briefly so you know what was copied
- Search highlights auto-clear after you stop moving
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 5: GIT WORKFLOW
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All git operations through vim-fugitive:
,gs Git status (press s to stage, press cc to commit)
,gd Diff current file (side-by-side split)
,gb Git blame (who changed each line)
,gc Git commit
,gp Git push
,gl Git pull
GitGutter shows changes in the sign column (left margin):
+ Added line
~ Modified line
- Deleted line
Navigate git conflict markers:
]x Jump to next conflict marker
[x Jump to previous conflict marker
>>> Try ,gs in a git repository to see the status view
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 6: MARKDOWN & WRITING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Markdown files get special treatment automatically:
- Word wrap enabled
- Spell checking enabled
- Syntax concealment (bold renders as bold, headings hide # markers)
- Folding by heading level
Key bindings for markdown:
,mp Open live browser preview (auto-refreshes as you type)
,mt Table of contents in a side window
,zen Enter zen mode — Goyo + Limelight
(distraction-free writing, only current paragraph highlighted)
zr Unfold all headings
zm Fold all headings
>>> Open a .md file and try ,zen to enter zen mode.
Press ,zen again to leave.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 7: WINDOW MANAGEMENT
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Navigate between splits (works with tmux panes too):
Ctrl+h Move to left split
Ctrl+j Move to split below
Ctrl+k Move to split above
Ctrl+l Move to right split
Buffer navigation:
,h Previous buffer
,l Next buffer
,bd Close buffer (keeps window layout)
,, Switch to last file (toggle between two files)
Window tricks:
,z Maximize current window (press again to restore)
,= / ,- Resize window height (bigger / smaller)
,+ / ,_ Resize window width (bigger / smaller)
Terminal:
,tv Open terminal (vertical split)
,th Open terminal (horizontal, 10 rows)
Esc Esc Exit terminal mode back to normal
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 8: LINTING & FORMATTING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ALE runs linters and formatters automatically:
- Linting happens as you type (normal mode) and on save
- Format-on-save is enabled by default (black, prettier, gofmt, etc.)
Navigate errors:
[e / ]e Previous / next ALE error
,aD Show error detail in a popup
Supported out of the box:
Python: flake8 + pylint (lint), black + isort (format)
JS/TS: eslint (lint), prettier + eslint (format)
Go: staticcheck (lint), goimports (format)
Rust: cargo (lint), rustfmt (format)
Shell: shellcheck (lint)
And more: yaml, dockerfile, css, markdown, sql
>>> Write some intentionally bad code and watch the sign column
light up with X (error) and ! (warning) markers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 9: RUNNING CODE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Press ,cr to run the current file. It auto-detects the language:
Python → python3 file.py
JavaScript → node file.js
TypeScript → npx ts-node file.ts
Go → go run file.go
Rust → cargo run
Shell → bash file.sh
C → gcc + run
Lua, Ruby, Perl also supported
>>> Create a test file (e.g. test.py with: print("hello"))
and press ,cr to run it
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lesson 10: DAILY TIPS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SEARCH AND REPLACE:
,* Replace word under cursor throughout the file
// In visual mode, search for selected text
USEFUL SHORTCUTS:
Y Yank to end of line (consistent with D and C)
,y / ,Y Yank to system clipboard
,F Re-indent entire file
,W Strip all trailing whitespace
:w!! Sudo save (when you forgot to open as root)
,ev Edit your vimrc
,sv Reload your vimrc
SESSIONS:
:Obsess Start recording session (auto-restores next time)
:Obsess! Stop recording
The startup screen (Startify) shows recent files, sessions, and bookmarks.
>>> Press ,? one more time to review the full cheat sheet.
You now know the essential chopsticks features. Happy editing!
