            "content": "Vimtutor  starts  the  Vim tutor.  It copies the tutor file first, so that it can be modified\nwithout changing the original file.\n\nThe Vimtutor is useful for people that want to learn their first Vim commands.\n\nThe optional argument -g starts vimtutor with gvim rather than vim, if the GUI version of vim\nis available, or falls back to Vim if gvim is not found.\n\nThe optional [language] argument is the two-letter name of a language, like \"it\" or \"es\".  If\nthe [language] argument is missing, the language of the current locale will be  used.   If  a\ntutor  in this language is available, it will be used.  Otherwise the English version will be\nused.\n\nVim is always started in Vi compatible mode.\n",
