VimGolf - real Vim ninjas count every keystroke!

Simple, Practical, and Common

Simple things we do all the time should be able to be done with very few keystrokes, but sometimes I find something I need to do makes me go, "There MUST be a better way." This challenge is just a simple movement and entering text at a certain place.

*temp var1 0
*temp var2 "hi"
