Visual Line Mode
Select complete lines with uppercase V.
Visual Line mode expands every motion to whole lines, making block movement and deletion independent of cursor columns.
Use V, and Esc in the editor beside this lesson. Practice is where you learn it, with the answer a click away; the Test is graded, unaided, and the only thing that marks this lesson complete.

Practice to learn it. Test to prove it.
Practice keeps the answer a click away — endlessly in Free, or as a 15-goal run against par and your own best time in Timed. The Test gives you 8 goals with no hints and a keystroke budget on each; passing it is what marks this lesson complete.
