Is it any free Visual Studio addons that emulate vim text edit mode? For now I have found only ViEmu, but it's 100$ :(.

+10  A: 
  1. ViEmu - Not Free but great Vim emulation.
  2. Visual_Studio.vim - Allows you to manage visual studio from Vim.
  3. Using GVim as the Visual Studio Editor

http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Integrate_gvim_with_Visual_Studio

and SO has same details available in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/110477/anyone-know-of-any-free-open-source-vi-integration-for-visual-studio

As i can see, only commercial viemu allows to edit code INSIDE visual studio with vim editing commands? Rest just allows to compile VS project from withing gvim?

After @joe's answer, Jared Parsons created the great VsVim. It's been featured on Visual Studio Gallery. It's a ready extension package. I downloaded it, ran the file and it worked out of the box. It's free, too.

Thanks a lot! Works perfectly for me.

It's still not entirely feature complete (for example, ci"/di" and other related commands, to change or delete within a given set of quotes/parens/etc are not implemented which drives me crazy).
