Very well made cheat sheet, but will it scare the new VIMers? I was using http://www.viemu.com/vi-vim-dvorak-cheat-sheet.gif when I started.

Re: Vim Cheat Sheet - For Programmers By Programmers
#12I started out vim, with bare minimum commands but later on went to emacs. With emacs I have an option M-x tab auto complete In case I don't get to remember something. I would like to know what are vim equivalents of this? Some how I feel deep down inside that vim was not designed bottom for this kind of complexity. I mean to say when you want to design something to scale you have to clearly decide what goes into the…
vim will auto complete words if you press control-p while in insert mode.
For what it's worth I feel how you feel about vim, about emacs. I suspect it's just a matter of familiarity.
edit: As DrJ points out, control-n works too. Seems the 'p' is for previous keyword and the 'n' for next keyword.

#13Now that's some visual clutter :(
There's simply no reason to think VIM is complicated or hard to learn at all :) There's a better looking but less information dense cheatsheet here. http://www.viemu.com/a_vi_vim_graphical_cheat_sheet_tutorial... I have it printed and taped to the window in the office.
This cheat sheet reminds me of http://www.visibone.com/ 's Browser book, which has the same kind of density of information. Doing this well is very hard and while the idea is good, more work is needed to attain Visibone's level.

"wollw" and "DrJ" I am talking about command auto completion, not word auto completion inside the editor.
In emacs, for word auto completion M-/ is just too awesome.

#16Why the need to stress For Programmers by Programmers? Isn't it obvious?
The sheet itself is really messy. I'd appreciate if anyone know a sheet that separates typical-editing and advanced-usage.

Command-line mode has tab completion. I'm not aware of there being auto completion in the other modes.

Pressing Tab completes commands in command-line mode, and its very smart. (Be sure to :set wildmenu to see a list of all matching commands as well.)

You can press the tab key in Vim to get command auto completion.
For example, :colo completes to :colorscheme.
