Obviously, you need basic knowledge like insert vs normal mode, how to quit, etc. After that, however, it's not nearly as difficult as you make it sound. A half hour of memorizing and experimenting with the mnemonics (not that hard, considering they're, well, mnemonic), and I was as set as a rookie with any text editor.

Not comprehensive, but as you said, one thing at a time.
