    rsi.vim: Readline style insertion

  • If you're in normal mode, as people have already said, it's A. If you are in insert mode, there are a lot of possibilities with roughly the same cost. Vim has a few insert-mode movement commands, e.g. j goes down a line, but so far as I know there isn't one that helps you. The vim-rsi plugin gives you readline-type commands in insert mode, so if you had that you could do to jump to the end of the line. Another possibility with plugins is to have something like auto-pairs installed in which case just typing ) would do it.

  • auto-pairs

    Vim plugin, insert or delete brackets, parens, quotes in pair
