pyvim

An implementation of Vim in Python

The original pyvim seems to have been written to prove the usefulness of the python-prompt-toolkit .

I am trying to modify it to a more vi/vim like editor.

Installation

Execute bellow pip command in the python virtual environment of your project.

It is possible to create a .pyvimrc file for a custom configuration. Have a look at this example: pyvimrc
