The FIRST video in a brand NEW show about Vim.
This series will provide small easily consumable Tips & Tricks in Vim to help you become a better Vim-er and is for Beginners & Intermediate Vim users alike. The aim is to hopefully expose/highlight some of Vim's massive (maybe even lesser known) functionality with explanations & examples.

In this episode I show you that you instead of having to navigate away from Vim, maybe even closing it in order to trigger shell commands. You can run shell commands from actually within Vim itself. Shell commands can be run and the output viewed either briefly inside your normal Terminal OR, even better, you can actually run the shell command and get the output of the command right back inside of the Vim editor, right back into your current Vim buffer, to do with whatever you like...

As a rubbish example you could run the `ls` command and get a list of files and folders into your Vim buffer (into the file you are currently editing) and create some form of directory file with descriptions about each of the files/folders. Again thats a bad example but hopefully the power of this feature is obvious. Then you are only limited by the shell commands that you know!
