You can also execute commands in this mode. If you are in another mode, all you need to do to enter normal mode is press the <b>ESC</b> key.</p> 28 29 <h3>Insert mode</h3> 30 <p>This is probably the second-most-used mode that every person who uses Neovim uses. In this mode, it allows you to type, and that is really it!</p> 31 <ul> 32 <li>Switches into insert mode where you are - i</li> 33 <li>Switches into insert mode on a new line below the current line - o</li> 34 <li>Switches into insert mode on a new line above the current line - O</li> 35 <li>Switches into insert mode on the next charicter - a</li> 36 <li>Switches to insert mode at the start of the line - I</li> 37 <li>Switches to insert mode at the end of the line - A</li> 38 </ul> 39 <font color="red">Remember to exit insert mode to normal mode press <b>ESC</b></font> 40 <h3>Visual mode</h3> 41 <p>In this mode, you are allowed to select text, kind of like how you can click and drag and select this text on your web browser; this mode allows you to copy, paste, and delete the selected text!</p> 42 <ul> 43 <li>To enter press - v</li> 44 </ul> 45 <hr> 46 <p>That is all for modes. There are a few more modes, like replace mode, that just allows you to replace a character, but these modes are not really used, at least by me.</p> 47 48 <center> 49 <hr> 50 <pre text-align=center><a href="../neovimlist.html">Back</a> <a href="2exitingnvim.html">Next</a> 51 </main> 52 </body> 53 </html>
