Universal key mappings

These basic Vim mappings are often used:

j	Go down
k	Go up
l	Go right
gg	Jump to beginning
G	Jump to end
w	Save
d	Delete
q or ZZ	Quit
:	Enter command mode
!	Use shell
/	Search forward
?	Search backward or help
CTRL-L	Refresh
CTRL-E	Scroll one line down
CTRL-Y	Scroll one line up
CTRL-D	Scroll half page down
CTRL-U	Scroll half page up
CTRL-F	Scroll one page down
CTRL-B	Scroll one page up
CTRL-O	Go back
CTRL-I	Go forth

Key mappings defined in Vimpressionist have been carefully optimized to be Vim-like as much as possible. You can try to guess them while using an application, but you can of course refer to the appropriate configuration file directly.
