    One of the worst habits you can develop when trying to learn Vim is using the arrow keys for navigation. DO NOT DO THIS. To help assist you in NOT DOING THIS, add the following to your `~/.vimrc` (this is your main Vim configuration file).

    " Disable arrow keys (except in command line)
    noremap <Up> ""
    inoremap <Up> <Esc>
    noremap <Down> ""
    inoremap <Down> <Esc>
    noremap <Left> ""
