> - force yourself to only move vertically using relative numbers > - force yourself to only move horizontally using [fF,;] These tips doesn't strike me as helpful. The w, b, e et al. (word boundary); % (paired delimiters); /, ? (occurrence); ^, $ (begin/end of line); and text object motions are indispensable to a Vimmer, and I use them all far more than I use [fF,;]. / and ? are more useful to me than f/F because it's often easier and faster to include another character or two of unique context for a character than to count occurrences beforehand or tap ; a bunch of times and they also work across multiple lines. I'm finally learning and remembering to use marks which are another great way to navigate a buffer or even several buffers at once.
