Imagine you’re working in vim. You come across this code:
gem 'clearance', '1.0.0.rc4'
gem 'neat'
gem 'stripe'
gem 'pg'
gem 'thin'
gem 'rails', '3.2.11'
gem 'bourbon'
gem 'simple_form'
gem 'strong_parameters'
You want to sort the list alphabetically. You select the lines visually:
Shift + V
You invoke the sort function:
:sort
You rejoice:
gem 'bourbon'
gem 'clearance', '1.0.0.rc4'
gem 'neat'
gem 'pg'
gem 'rails', '3.2.11'
gem 'simple_form'
gem 'stripe'
gem 'strong_parameters'
gem 'thin'
You dig deeper:
:help sort
