Edit The Command Line With Vim

This is a quick (and great) tip I found at Daily Vim:

Open a linux terminal, and type some (long) command.
Now type [ctrl]+[x] and then [ctrl]+[e]
The command should be moved now to a vim window.
Edit the command (fix typos, change parameters, etc..) and save.
The command will now be executed.
Enjoy ;)
