#Tip23: Prefer Operators to Visual Commands Where Possible

note: Visual mode may be more intuitive than Vim's Normal mode of operation, but it has a weakness: it doesn't always play well with the dot command.

##vit

select the inner contents of a tag
it command is a special kind of motion called a text object.

##U

converts the selected characters to uppercase

Running j.:

#Tip:

The Visual mode U command has a Normal mode equivalent: gU{motion}

#Discussion

vitU can be considered as two separate commands: vit to make a selection and U to transform the selection.
gUit can be considered as a single command comprise of a operator gU and a motion it.

##So, we should prefer operator commands over their equivalents when working through a repetitive set of changes.
