我相信Home和End(以及PageUp/PageDn)在插入模式下也能正常工作，但除此之外，我不相信还有其他为文本遍历定义的标准键。

插入模式

运动

hjkl

尽管Pavel Shved说过——习惯转义插入模式可能更可取——这里有一个在插入模式下快速导航的映射示例集:

" provide hjkl movements in Insert mode via the <Alt> modifier key
inoremap <A-h> <C-o>h
inoremap <A-j> <C-o>j
inoremap <A-k> <C-o>k
inoremap <A-l> <C-o>l

这将使插入模式下的Alt+h向左移动一个字符，Alt+j向下，以此类推，类似于普通模式下的hjkl。

您必须将该代码复制到vimrc文件中，以便在每次启动vim时加载它(您可以通过键入:new $myvimrc starting in Normal mode打开该文件)。

任何正常模式移动

因为默认情况下Alt修饰键没有映射到(重要的东西)，所以您可以以同样的方式将其他(或所有)功能从普通模式拉到插入模式。例如: 用Alt+b移动到当前单词的开头:

inoremap <A-b> <C-o>b
inoremap <A-w> <C-o>w

(插入模式下Alt的其他用法)

值得一提的是，Alt键可能有比复制Normal模式行为更好的用途:例如，下面是从相邻行复制当前列到行尾部分的映射:

" Insert the rest of the line below the cursor.
" Mnemonic: Elevate characters from below line
inoremap <A-e> 
    \<Esc>
    \jl
        \y$
    \hk
        \p
        \a
" Insert the rest of the line above the cursor.
" Mnemonic: Y depicts a funnel, through which the above line's characters pour onto the current line.
inoremap <A-y> 
    \<Esc>
    \kl
        \y$
    \hj
        \p
        \a

(我使用了行续和缩进来增加清晰度。这些命令就像写在一行上一样。)

内置热键编辑

CTRL-H   delete the character  in front of the cursor (same as <Backspace>)
CTRL-W   delete the word       in front of the cursor
CTRL-U   delete all characters in front of the cursor (influenced by the 'backspace' option)

(在插入模式下，没有明显的内置热键用于移动。)

参考:help insert-index

命令行模式

这组映射使得上Alt+hjkl移动在命令行中可用:

" provide hjkl movements in Command-line mode via the <Alt> modifier key
cnoremap <A-h> <Left>
cnoremap <A-j> <Down>
cnoremap <A-k> <Up>
cnoremap <A-l> <Right>

或者，这些映射将移动同时添加到插入模式和命令行模式:

" provide hjkl movements in Insert mode and Command-line mode via the <Alt> modifier key
noremap! <A-h> <Left>
noremap! <A-j> <Down>
noremap! <A-k> <Up>
noremap! <A-l> <Right>

将普通模式命令拉到命令行模式的映射命令看起来与插入模式映射命令有点不同(因为命令行模式缺少插入模式的Ctrl+O):

" Normal mode command(s) go… --v <-- here
cnoremap <expr> <A-h> &cedit. 'h' .'<C-c>'
cnoremap <expr> <A-j> &cedit. 'j' .'<C-c>'
cnoremap <expr> <A-k> &cedit. 'k' .'<C-c>'
cnoremap <expr> <A-l> &cedit. 'l' .'<C-c>'

cnoremap <expr> <A-b> &cedit. 'b' .'<C-c>'
cnoremap <expr> <A-w> &cedit. 'w' .'<C-c>'

内置热键移动和编辑

CTRL-B       cursor to beginning of command-line
CTRL-E       cursor to end       of command-line

CTRL-F       opens the command-line window (unless a different key is specified in 'cedit')

CTRL-H       delete the character  in front of the cursor (same as <Backspace>)
CTRL-W       delete the word       in front of the cursor
CTRL-U       delete all characters in front of the cursor

CTRL-P       recall previous command-line from history (that matches pattern in front of the cursor)
CTRL-N       recall next     command-line from history (that matches pattern in front of the cursor)
<Up>         recall previous command-line from history (that matches pattern in front of the cursor)
<Down>       recall next     command-line from history (that matches pattern in front of the cursor)
<S-Up>       recall previous command-line from history
<S-Down>     recall next     command-line from history
<PageUp>     recall previous command-line from history
<PageDown>   recall next     command-line from history

<S-Left>     cursor one word left
<C-Left>     cursor one word left
<S-Right>    cursor one word right
<C-Right>    cursor one word right

<LeftMouse>  cursor at mouse click

可以使用imap将插入模式下的任何键映射到其中一个游标键。像这样:

imap h <Left>

现在h的工作就像在正常模式下一样，移动光标。(以这种方式映射h显然是一个糟糕的选择)

话虽如此，我并不认为使用VIM在文本中移动的标准方式是“低效的”。在普通模式下有很多非常强大的遍历文本的方法(比如使用w和b，或/和?，或f和f，等等)。

抱歉，vim不是这样工作的。

你应该切换到“正常”模式，导航，然后返回插入。

在GVim中，您可以使用鼠标。但说实话，使用方向键有什么错呢?它们在键盘上是有原因的。

虽然您应该能够使用h j k l键在插入模式下遍历编辑器可能有意义，但这实际上不是Vim的使用方式!Vim提供了许多命令来使编辑变得更快更容易。

正确的方法是按Esc键，去你想做一个小的修正，修正它，返回并继续编辑。这是有效的，因为Vim有更多的运动比通常字符向前/向后/向上/向下。当你学到更多的时候，你就会更有效率。

下面是一些用例:

You accidentally typed "accifentally". No problem, the sequence EscFfrdA will correct the mistake and bring you back to where you were editing. The Ff movement will move your cursor backwards to the first encountered "f" character. Compare that with Ctrl+←→→→→DeldEnd, which does virtually the same in a casual editor, but takes more keystrokes and makes you move your hand out of the alphanumeric area of the keyboard. You accidentally typed "you accidentally typed", but want to correct it to "you intentionally typed". Then Esc2bcw will erase the word you want to fix and bring you to insert mode, so you can immediately retype it. To get back to editing, just press A instead of End, so you don't have to move your hand to reach the End key. You accidentally typed "mouse" instead of "mice". No problem - the good old Ctrl+w will delete the previous word without leaving insert mode. And it happens to be much faster to erase a small word than to fix errors within it. I'm so used to it that I had closed the browser page when I was typing this message...! Repetition count is largely underused. Before making a movement, you can type a number; and the movement will be repeated this number of times. For example, 15h will bring your cursor 15 characters back and 4j will move your cursor 4 lines down. Start using them and you'll get used to it soon. If you made a mistake ten characters back from your cursor, you'll find out that pressing the ← key 10 times is much slower than the iterative approach to moving the cursor. So you can instead quickly type the keys 12h (as a rough of guess how many characters back that you need to move your cursor), and immediately move forward twice with ll to quickly correct the error.

但是，如果您仍然想在不离开插入模式的情况下进行小型文本遍历，请遵循rson的建议并使用Ctrl+O。以我上面提到的第一个例子为例，Ctrl+OFf将移动到前面的“f”字符，并使您处于插入模式。
