# I've got it triggered with Space F -R like doom emacs

I tried to use fzf before and was unsuccessful

apt installing it wasn't enough

installing junegun/fzf wasn't enough either

you need all 3 for it to work

the next hurdle you have to jump over is set a keybind

vim spellcheck

:set spell

• s[ search next mispelled word
• z= that brings up a list of corrections
• :set nospell turns it off

ctrl o: temporary normal mode

ive been using this one a whole lot lately.

with emmet i have comma in normal mode to expand html.

it gets really confusing switching back and forth between modes all the time. being able to slip in and out without ever leaving insert has real potential for some slick typing

p ctrl o comma coma

its gonna take some getting used to to work that into muscle memory but it will be worth it.

ctrl o o = jump line staying in insert mode

dealing with splits in vim

ctrl w r = swap panes

ctrl w c = close panes
