a byte of vim -- 学习摘要

说在前面的话 -- a byte of vim 是我见过的最介绍vim 最好的书，想了解强大的vim的人，或者是已经在使用vim而打算进一步了解的人，我感觉都应该看看这个，内容精炼但涵盖非常广，……“vim为什么这么强大”，当看完这本书时，我想你就能全然的了解了……此外。本书是一英文版，但非常easy，学语言的同一时候学习英语非常不多……

附上最新版的下载链接 http://download.csdn.net/detail/wuzhimang/8933257  ，当然上官网才是硬道理

下面是自己针对a byte of vim 做的学习摘要。原文的内容，方便自己以后使用与回顾 —— 由于好书（哪怕是工具书）读一两遍是不够的
