Vim will save you time by eliminating the need to take your
hands off the keyboard in order to position the cursor by sliding those little
scroll bars up and down with the mouse. Scrolling via the keyboard is
immensely efficient.7 At a minimum, get used to the
zz command, which will position the cursor and the line you're
currently working on, in the center of the screen. Just don't confuse it with
ZZ which is a shortcut for ``exit.''
