vimrc VIM Command
How to use vimrc Command in Linux VIM editor?
Explanation
In Vim you can set the settings, based on how you want vim to work. If you feel tired of typing the commands that you use often, then you can type and save all your favorite commands in a file called vimrc. These commands executed by Vim before it starts up.
If we don't have the file, then we can create the file using the following file name.

:edit $MYVIMRC
