I finally got around to teaching myself VIM and am really liking it. I was wondering if anyone here knew of a way to set up my Google Docs to support the VIM commands?

Best I can find is GoogleCL which will let you edit a Google Doc from the command line.

google docs edit --title "My Document" --editor vim

Unfortunately I got a 503 error when I attempted to use this tool on a new file. Editing an existing doc worked.
