Search

f and t within the line; / and * across the file.

The fastest way to get somewhere is to search for it. Within the line, f + character jumps to that character and t stops right before it. ; repeats the last jump. Across the file, /text + Enter searches forward, n goes to the next match and N to the previous one. searches for the word under the cursor.
