Sort Lines in Vim
You are working in Vim. You come across this code:
gem "clearance", "1.0.0.rc4"
gem "neat"
gem "stripe"
gem "pg"
gem "thin"
gem "rails", "3.2.11"
gem "bourbon"
gem "simple_form"
gem "strong_parameters"
You want to sort the list alphabetically. You select the lines visually:
Shift+v
You invoke the sort
function:
:sort
You rejoice:

gem "neat"
gem "pg"
gem "rails", "3.2.11"
gem "simple_form"
gem "stripe"
