To customize Vim’s behavior, modifications can be made to the .vimrc file. This is a configuration file that Vim reads every time it starts up. It’s located in your home directory and allows you to set various options.
For instance, if you want line numbers displayed by default, add ‘set number’ to the .vimrc file. To enable syntax highlighting, include ‘syntax on’. For auto-indentation, use ‘set autoindent’.
You can also map keys for specific commands. For example, ‘map :w‘ will save the current file when F2 is pressed.
