I was overjoyed today to read that bash has a vi mode, wherein you can use vim movement commands.

To use it, enter, or add to your bash profile:

1

set -o vi

After you type it in, you will be in insert mode. From there, you can hit ‘esc’ which lets you use h, j, k, l, c, b, w, e, A, a, i, I, ^ and all the other vim commands you know and love.

For emacs fans, there is an emacs mode as well.
