I haven't dived into the details of Evil mode too much. The basic Vim motions and commands work out of the box, so for a casual vim user, it ought to be enough. I also went ahead and installed Evil-leader, so I could have the same <leader> keymaps that I have in my vim config.

A few places where I looked for small things here and there:

1. http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Evil

2. https://github.com/cofi/evil-leader

3. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8483182/evil-mode-best-p...

4. https://github.com/mixandgo/emacs.d/blob/master/my-evil.el

5. https://bling.github.io/blog/2013/10/27/emacs-as-my-leader-v...

And I also got ido-vertical-mode so the emacs command buffer looks better.

Here's my setup: https://github.com/mgill25/emacs See user.el

Cheers!

PS: Some of the configuration needs to be set up before you activate certain modes - which is often implicit in plugins, so watch out for that. Eg: To emulate C-u behavior, the functions had to be put ahead of the (require 'evil) call in evil-leader.el
