vi: what is verbose mode and when/how do I use it?
Sometimes When I'm using vi I accidentally hit caps lock
when I'm in command mode

which I'm having trouble finding documentation about how to use. How and when should I use verbose mode
?

* Start Vim in verbose mode: vim -V. (Describes each file being sourced).

When 'verbose' is non-zero messages are printed (for debugging, to stderr).
