At the moment i'm gathering information about the common VI
features and therefore i use the 3 vi reference cards

http://vh224401.truman.edu/~dbindner/mirror/vi-ref.pdf
http://www.selectorweb.com/vi.html
http://my.pages.de/vi-refcard.html

and playing a little bit with GVIM 6.3
I think i will add all the mentionend commands, inclusive the
command-line stuff.

But some things may not be the same like the definition what a "word" is.
