| 11 | DESCRIPTION |
| Bram Moolenaar | 8299df9 | 2004-07-10 09:47:34 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 12 | Vimtutor starts the Vim tutor. It copies the tutor file first, so that |
| 13 | it can be modified without changing the original file. |

| Bram Moolenaar | 8299df9 | 2004-07-10 09:47:34 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 15 | The Vimtutor is useful for people that want to learn their first Vim |
| 16 | commands. |

| Bram Moolenaar | 8299df9 | 2004-07-10 09:47:34 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 18 | The optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language, |
| 19 | like "it" or "es". If the [language] argument is missing, the language |
| 20 | of the current locale will be used. If a tutor in this language is |
| 21 | available, it will be used. Otherwise the English version will be |
| 22 | used. |
| Bram Moolenaar | 071d427 | 2004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 23 | |
| 24 | Vim is always started in Vi compatible mode. |
