Mm... Agree with those.

I use vim a lot and I'd add these as things in vim I found to be major productivity sinks too:

- using tabs

Simply too finiky. Create windows using :split and :vsplit. Swap between them using control-W h/j/k/l or :winc h/j/k/l Also:

CTRL-W =, CTRL-W N-, CTRL-W N+, CTRL-W N<, CTRL-W N>

Especially useful on large visual terminals where you can have multiple files open all at once and swap between them without touching the mouse.

- cwBLAH . . . . .

agh. Use :%s/blah/BLAH/g

:)
