To switch from vi mode to Vim mode in Bash, you need to set the "vi" mode to "vim" mode. You can do this by adding the following line to your shell script or Bash configuration file (~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile):
set -o vi
This will set the "vi" mode to "vim" mode, which means that you will be using the Vim editor instead of the classic vi editor. After adding this line to your configuration file, save the file and restart your shell or source the file to make the changes take effect:
source ~/.bashrc
Once you have switched to Vim mode, you can use all the powerful commands and features of Vim, including its advanced keybindings, macros, and plugins.
