I find it very nice to set relative line numbers and use a count with j/k for down/up movement. One would think you could do the same thing with absolute line numbers and G, but I always find that to be too much typing. I usually end up typing "4j" instead of "jjjj" or "1546G", much faster. And getting in the habit makes it that much easier to do things like d4j instead of Vjjjjd. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
