Quick start

Vimwiki is a personal wiki for Vim. Using it you can organize text files with hyperlinks. To do a quick start press <Leader>ww (this is usually \ww) to go to your index wiki file. By default it is located in:

~/vimwiki/index.wiki

You do not have to create it manually -- vimwiki can make it for you.

Feed it with the following example:

= My knowledge base =
  * MyUrgentTasks -- things to be done _yesterday_!!!
  * ProjectGutenberg -- good books are power.
  * MusicILike, MusicIHate.

Notice that ProjectGutenberg, MyUrgentTasks, MusicILike and MusicIHate highlighted as errors. These WikiWords (WikiWord or WikiPage -- capitalized word connected with other capitalized words) do not exist yet.

Place cursor on ProjectGutenberg and press Enter. Now you are in ProjectGutenberg. Edit and save it, then press Backspace to return to previous WikiPage. You should see the difference in highlighting now.

Now it is your turn...

For the various options see :h vimwiki-options.

There is also vimwiki quick reference card available. Many thanks to J.A.J. Pater.
