It's cool if it drags more people into vim, but as a vim user, I'm not very impressed.
I mean, he knows some useful commands (:read, mostly) but the most time saving fraction (repeat xxx times a motion) is very basic and nnot very cleverly executed as he splits it in 2 actions.
Using a macro would have helped introduce a new concept to the new users, while completing the task in one step.
Would be an interesting vimgolf exercise though
