We have already covered some of the horizontal and vertical motions, I/A and <count>j/k are great examples of fast motions. But if that is all we had, VIM would just be lacking in luster.

Quick Recap

Motion: A command that moves the cursor.

• modified with a count

  • 5j instead of jjjjj

• modify an "action" with a movement

  • 5dd and d4j are "equivalent"

There are more motions!

• G and gg bottom or top respectively
  • do you think you can dG?

lets do an exercise and go over some advanced motions!
