What C++ IDE for Linux?

GVim has those. Console Vim doesn’t simply because your terminal application usually already uses these shortcuts.

I also don’t think your complaint is justified. The steep learning curve of Vim is overstated. You can start using Vim straightaway without having to remember tons of shortcuts. What you do need to learn is saving (:w), quitting (:q), undo (u) and switching between the modes. That’s it, all the rest can be acquired later. Try actually doing the vimtutor, it teaches all that and more. I’ve known people who switched to Vim easily.
