Vim can be very annoying to navigate and use when everything is one color, there are no line numbers to help debug, and you must only use arrow keys to navigate. Here is how to customize your vim for easier convenience when programming:
Go to terminal, type command:
vi ~./vimrc
The vimrc file contains optional runtime configuration settings to initialize Vim when it starts. You can customize Vim by putting suitable commands in your vimrc.
In this file, type the following
To turn on color schema:
syntax on
colorscheme delek
To add line number:
set number
To add cursor:
set mouse=a
Please fix the following typing mistake in the post:
~/.vimrc instead of ~./vimrc is required
