ViM Emulation

Versions:  2008,2010

I've gotten several requests about ViM Emulation in Visual Studio so figured this would be a good time to field them.  First, Visual Studio does not support ViM emulation out of the box.  However, as of the time of this writing, there are two solutions in the gallery depending on your version:

 

VS2010

VsVim by Jared Parsons has had a ton of downloads and is very well reviewed plus it is free.  You can find it here:  https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/59ca71b3-a4a3-46ca-8fe1-0e90e3f79329  and here is a screenshot from the Visual Studio Gallery:

VS2008 and Prior

ViEmu by NGEDIT Software is available for versions prior to VS2010.  It has some good reviews and the trial version is available from the gallery here:  https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/C9055830-39AB-4B39-A19E-4D60F195E7FC  Here is a screenshot:

So, if you need Vi emulation, here are a couple of options.  These may not be the only options but they are readily available in the Visual Studio Gallery.

    ViEmu works great on VS2010 as well as of several versions ago.  I use it and like it, and though it's still not quit VIm, it's pretty close.
