Scroll two splits simultaneously
If you’ve ever diffed a file in Vim or otherwise had two corresponding splits, you may have wished for a way to scroll them together. Vim can do just that with scrollbind
.
With scrollbind
enabled, each window in Vim will scroll simultaneously. Line for line as you move through the file, the other window will scroll as well.
Simply run the following:
:set scrollbind
Or to put it back:
:set noscrollbind
You can also toggle the option with:
:set scb!
Here’s a short screencast showing scrollbind
in action. This is really invaluable for diffing or just looking at two similar files at once.
