Tip #820: VimTip is a one-stop resource to vim. Keep it in your $VIM directory

The VimTip textfile and database has become one of my favorite ways to learn
new tricks in vim. So I keep it easy available at all times and have applied
some of the nice tricks I have learned to the file to make it easier to read.

1: Get the text file (wget is a external tool, you can get a windows version)
    Download the text version with a browser or use wget like this.
    On the vim commandline: (It's all on one line)
:!wget https://www.vim8.org/tips/tip_download.php?download=download -O
~/.vim/vimtips.txt

2: Open it and apply foldmarks.
:e ~/.vim/vimtips.txt
:%s/\(^VimTip\)/\1\t{{{1/g
:set foldmethod=marker

3: Now you should have a nice index of all the vimtip's provided. Open a fold
by placing the cursor on a line and hit za. Open all folds with zR. Close them
again with zM

4: After some vimtip's reading you shoul be able to make a automatic process of it to update your vimtips.txt file regularly.

Happy vim'ing
