+You can pass the `vim` command with different options and flags, just like any terminal commands. One of the options is the command-line command (`+{cmd}` or `c cmd`). As you learn more command-line commands throughout this book, see if you can apply it on start. Also being a terminal command, you can combine `vim` with many other terminal commands. For example, you can redirect the output of the `ls` command to be edited in Vim with `ls -l | vim -`.
 
 To learn more about the different options you can pass from the terminal, check out `man vim`. To learn more about Vim modes and commands, check out `:help`.
