undo continually vi
May not work in 3.1 version.
Undo continually things like stack-popping
u . . .
Suppose you write hello
in insert -mode. Go to normal mode, write hallo
and go to normal mode. Then type u .
, you get hello
. Type again .
and you will get blank. You can reverse it by typing again u . .
so you will get hello hallo
. It is very easy to memorize because it works like stacks! I.e. undo
repeat the last command
repeat the last command
where the repeat the last command can be undo
. When you press u u
, it does mean undo the last command
: undo last command
and the second u
means undo the last command and in this case it is u
.
