I don't know this command, about to test it out.
I always use 0 and $, then W and B to leapfrog words manually ๐
Thanks!
Welcome! I also stumbled upon these after I'd been using vim for a while. You've probably seen them in guides but glossed over them like I did originally. But once you get used to using these keys, you'll wonder how you lived without them!
Used in combos like
f(dib
(delete function parameters), or2t.
(go back two periods, or sentences) they're so great for moving within a long row.
