Word-based movement can serve as a quick way to get around locally in Vim. I
most often use w
and b
for this kind of movement. While w
and b
move
me to the beginning of the next and previous word, respectively, I find that
sometimes it would be more convenient if I were at the end of a word.
The e
and ge
commands serve this purpose well. e
will move me to the
end of the next word and ge
will move me to the end of the previous word.
