Examples and Tips

* Some of the commands take a '''<movement command>'''. These commands apply the movement to themselves. For example, '''d$''' would use $ as a movement, which moves the cursor to the end of the line, thus, the whole '''d$''' would delete text from the current cursor position to the end of the line. Another example, a command '''c''fA''''' would use '''fA''' as a movement, which finds the next occurance of the character '''A''', thus, the whole command would change the line up to character '''A'''.
* Use '''CTRL-v''' to insert character literally, for example, '''CTRL-v CTRL-r''' would insert CTRL-r in the command line.
* See '''man bash''', '''man readline''', and built in '''bind''' command for modifying the default behavior!

		+	We concentrated on shortcut key combinations to make things fast, and these were the vi-keybinding conventions.

		+	Note that on the command-line, the key <ESC> must be pressed first, but after many keystrokes only need one key to move around. Pressing the <ENTER> is not required for these actions.
