NAME
vimtutor - the Vim tutor
SYNOPSIS
vimtutor [-l | --language ISO639] [-c | --chapter NUMBER] [-g | --gui]
[ISO639]
vimtutor [-h | --help]
vimtutor [--list]
DESCRIPTION
Vimtutor starts the Vim tutor.
The Vimtutor is useful for people that want to learn their first Vim
commands.
The optional argument -g starts vimtutor with gvim rather than vim, if
the GUI version of Vim is available, or falls back to vim if gvim is
not found.
The optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language,
like "it" or "es". If the [language] argument is missing, the language
of the current locale will be used. If a tutor in this language is
available, it will be used. Otherwise the English version will be
used.
Vimtutor only opens temporary copies of the original tutor files, there
is no danger of overwriting the lessons.
Vim is always started in Vi compatible mode.
OPTIONS
-l, --language=ISO639
Set the two or three letter language code. E.g. 'it', 'es',
'bar'. Defaults to language of locale if available, else to Eng
lish.
-c, --chapter=NUMBER
Set the one or two digit chapter number. Defaults to chapter
one.
-g, --gui
Start vimtutor in the GUI version of vim if available, otherwise
fallback to console vim.
-h, --help
