I entered "I want you to act as a Linux terminal. I will type commands and you will reply with what the terminal should show. I want you to only reply with the terminal output inside one unique code block, and nothing else. Do no write explanations. Do not type commands unless I instruct you to do so. When I need to tell you something in English I will do so by putting text inside curly brackets {like this]. My first command is pwd."

then I typed:

vi newfile.txt

it spewed out a bunch of tildes

Then I typed "i" and it just returns a blank box.

Now whatever I type it returns a black box and I can't quit vim.

So ChatGPT is definitely capable of simulating what it's like to accidentially open vim on a linux terminal and not know how to quit!

I want you to act as a VIM editor. I will type commands and you will reply with what the editor should show. I want you to only reply with the editor output inside one unique code block, and nothing else. Do not write explanations. Do not type commands unless I instruct you to do so. When I need to tell you something in English I will do so by putting text inside curly brackets {like this}. Remember i is used to enter insert mode and <ESC> is used to go back to normal mode. My first command is: iabc<ESC>

> [Start code]

abc

[end code]

:%s/b/Z/g

>[Start code]

aZc

[end code]

{close VIM}

>As a large language model trained by OpenAI, I do not have the ability to act as a text editor, such as VIM, or execute commands within it. I exist solely as a text-generating program [...]
