Feel free to ask anything, share your own configs or links to plugins!

My list of plugins (sorted from favourites to must-haves):
I’d also want to mention the popular NeoVim “distributions” (AstroVim, LazyVim, NvChad, etc). They look like the easy way to go, but I would recommend you create your own config from scratch. It will help you be more familiar with the tool you want to create and use =) The only exception is mini.nvim. It’s not a “distribution” but a library of independent Lua modules that require a deep understanding and can be used independently.
I’ve been wanting to do this and putting it off for months, but you helped me bite the bullet, thank you 
Glad to hear that!
Maybe you can share your config (or screenshots) to inspire someone else =)
More vim is always good.
Hey here is one resource that helped me learn vim motions the first time
kad san u terminalu vim mi je view a nano editor…
nano je malo laksi za zahvatit i zapamtit komande, dok vim ima bolji preglet al komplicirano malo za editor… bar sta se tice na android uredajima…
jedino sta znam od vim.a jest:
:w :qa!
ovakav post mnogo znaci +
@coja radi li na win7 32bit znas li?
hh a jest ancient OS al stas hh…
evo malo studiram ovaj naovim na liuxu
i mogao bih rec jako opsiran editor ima mogucnosti masu… malo kad uvatis komande kao hjkl za kretnju i komande za edit text nvim jako dobro…
nego @coja znas li mozda kako ovaj split screen da mi bude na pola ekrena ovo di je bila traka spustit malo doli…znaci dijezuta linija da bude di je poluzelena kao…
ako koristis na androidu, i jel se stavlja .vimrc u .vim folder il … nvim isto poteze config iz .vimrc…
ono sta nisan skuzija prije jest da ovi vim editor ima 4moda kao view/insert/ex/command hh kasnije se uigras s komandama…
You need to set up the execution permission for the AppImage file:
chmod +x ./filename.appimage
After that you could run it with ./filename.appimage or with a doubleclick.
Ctrl+W +/- increase/decrease height (ex. 20<C-w>+)Ctrl+W >/< increase/decrease width (ex. 30<C-w><)Ctrl+W = equalize width and height of all windowsSee also :help CTRL-W or this chapter for basic introduction.
Hope it helps! =)
Did you try it?
I like the cursor animation and smooth scrolling, but kitty still much more suitable for my workflow: I’m too lazy to switch working directory inside of the vim, old good cd + nvim still works 
@disu1950 Ne znam za win7 32bita, preporucujem da ga oboris i instalias debian 32bita, poslednju verziju, imaces mng vise mogucnosti i bice znatno brzi.
Za split terminala nzm, vidim da je to termux. Mozes da probas sa tmux, sa njim moze split kako zelis.
I did, added some neovide config to init.lua, like window size, transperentcy, zoom, cursor is more fun… looks cool and seems to be a faster.
instalias debian 32bita, poslednju verzij
ako moze link di mogu skinit i koliko GB je potrebo ?
@He4eT
thx for info, ill try … just came online… +
yees this one i needed:
Ctrl+W +/- increase/decrease height (ex. 20<C-w>+)
thx for this
sad je to ovako pola-pola screen
while testing these also found out we can split screen on many ways to open many files…
using these
navigate between windows, use these shortcuts:
Ctrl-W H Moves the cursor to the left window
Ctrl-W J Moves the cursor to the window below
Ctrl-W K Moves the cursor to the window upper
Ctrl-W L Moves the cursor to the right window
*premda je lakse na android mos tap da pribaci kurson stoga bolje i brze nego ovi gori shortcuts…
useful normal-mode window commands:
Ctrl-W V Opens a new vertical split
Ctrl-W S Opens a new horizontal split
Ctrl-W C Closes a window
Ctrl-W O Makes the current window the only one on screen and closes other windows
And here is a list of useful window command-line commands:
:vsplit filename Split window vertically
:split filename Split window horizontally
:new filename Create new window
thx…
dns cu bas vidit…
download sam…
600mb+ to je prihvatljivo hh
