I’ve just discovered this by accident: one can make infinite recursive loops in vim. It’s very simple: just record a macro and in that macro apply that macro.

That may seem useless but it’s not: I’m now finally able to port my very first program to vim. The original form was:

10 PRINT "HELLO"
20 GOTO 10

In vim: type <ESC> qaoHELLO <ESC> @aq followed by @a.
