*redo, sorry
All my homies just CTRL+Z
They probably mean redo, because that is what CTRL + SHIFT + Z and CTRL + Y commonly do.
Ctrl + Y shall paste, and nothing else!
I prefer ctrl+shift+z for redo. The advantage is you can spam both undo and redo without moving your finger from Ctrl and Z buttons. Very common in professional apps.
u for undo. vi forever!
Don’t forget that Vim also keeps every tree of undo history. Wrote someone one way, wanted to try another way, and changed your mind? Switch to the other undo future! Change your mind again? Go back!
And there’s persistent undo, where your undo history is written a file. Quit Vim, power off your machine for 5 years, power it back on, and you can still undo!
Shouldn’t it be used for redo?
I mean, yeah, of course it should be paste. But if you decide to break the established convention, isn’t the next option redo, instead of undo?
Windows Explorer…
