Okay, so I am trying to use C again, but this time it was recommended I try Vim since I was having a lot of trouble with vi (have terrible typing habits that are not conducive to this type of editing software).
I downloaded ubuntu and vim but when I go to the shell and type in vimtutor it comes up with a bunch of errors in the text. For example, "[5,6HVim is a powerful...".
The tutor is full of extra brackets and numbers, plus it wants me to run through the hjkl, which is exactly what I am trying to avoid by switching to vim.
I have tried just jumping into the editor (which has been great!) but can't for the life of me figure out how to compile the code. At this point I am fine with skipping the tutor if someone can tell me how to compile.
