Thank you Sean for the above link, and to everyone else who replied. There is obviously a lot that can be done with vim, but I will take your advice and build up these skills gradually and try to concentrate on learning python! I've learned that: - gvim may suit me better than vim - a tabbed console is not as good as having a separate window for vim, the python interpreter and the shell. (thank you Alan) - re-configuring the Caps Lock to be an extra Esc saves time - I must learn how to 'fold' functions
