is there anything like "describe-key" (EMacs)in vim ?
The simplest might be the Vim help system. For example:
:h ^X
describes Ctrl-X. You have to type "^X" as two characters, not one.
It is a good idea to get familiar with the help system in Vim (the same
as with the Emacs help system for Emacs users). Try both:
:h
:h help
For commands and keybindings, Emacs has a ¹one-line help (corresponding
to the first line of a starred doc-string -- if I remember well), ²the
full doc-string (which is usually more succinct than the manual, yet in
a few cases more complete than the manual, or even, very rarely,
contradicting it :-), and the ³automatic display of the manual entry.
Vim help mostly corresponds to this later one.
