“Welcome to Vim” video is online
Well, it took quite a while but I’ve finally made the Novice Tutorial Prequel – Welcome to Vim. For most of you this won’t be very informative but I really felt that these Novice videos needed a true introduction, and this is it :)

Hi Derek,
I’ve swallowed the vim coolaid and am now a convert and am using your .vimrc file but with mouse support turned on which allows me to click in the vim window to reposition the cursor but I have a problem in that I can’t click on text beyond a certain point in the buffer, say beyond coloum 223 (approximately). Clicking anywhere before this point works fine but not beyond it. Is there a vim setting for this? At my previous employer, I was able to stretch out the single vim window across 2 monitors ( 3200×1080 resolution ) and reposition the cursor anywhere in the vim buffer from extreme right to extreme left sides. Is this a monitor resolution setup issue or a vim issue? I love the videos! Thanks
