1## Vim Mode package [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/atom/vim-mode.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/atom/vim-mode)
2
3Provides vim modal control for Atom, ideally blending the best of vim
4and Atom.

6### Installing
7
8Use the Atom package manager, which can be found in the Settings view or
9run `apm install vim-mode` from the command line.
10
11### Current Status
12
13Sizable portions of Vim's command mode work as you'd expect, including
14many complex combinations. Even so, this package is far from finished (Vim
15wasn't built in a day).
16
17If you want the vim ex line (for `:w`, `:s`, etc.), you can try [ex-mode](https://atom.io/packages/ex-mode)
18which works in conjuction with this plugin.
19
20Currently, vim-mode requires soft line wraps to be disabled, and has some issues
21with international keyboard layouts.

23If there's a feature of Vim you're missing, it might just be that you use it
24more often than other developers. Adding a feature can be quick and easy. Check
25out the [closed pull requests](https://github.com/atom/vim-mode/pulls?direction=desc&page=1&sort=created&state=closed)
26to see examples of community contributions. We're looking forward to yours, too.

41 `docs/`
42* Create a PR.

44When in doubt, open a PR earlier rather than later so that you can receive
45feedback from the community. We want to get your fix or feature included as much
46as you do.
