I use C-{n,p,f,b} all the time, though admittedly their placement is more convenient with Dvorak.
Though I also tend to use M-f and M-b a lot to navigate by words instead of characters.
I also often navigate by incremental search.
- conistonwater 12y agoSpeaking of incremental search: try ace-jump-mode, it's really good. Here is a video that shows it at work: http://emacsrocks.com/e10.html http://emacsrocks.com/e10.html

- michaelcampbell 12y agoHow long did it take you to get used to that? Replacing the searched-for letter with (essentially) a marker seems a bit mind-altering.
- acomjean 12y agoThe nice thing about the C-{n,p,f,b,a,e} is they work on the bash shell command line by default. So learning them is actually really useful, even outside of emacs.
- JadeNB 12y agoThat's only because emacs keybindings are the default in bash. A quick `set -o vi` will give a vimmer his or her `w` and so on.
