Navigate by char. The best way to “get” it is to try it.
Any other key stops jump-char and edits as normal.
| key | does |
|---|---|
| <char> | move to the next match in the current direction. |
| ; | next match forward (towards end of buffer) |
| , | next match backward (towards beginning of buffer) |
| C-c C-c | invoke `ace-jump-mode’ if available |
C-c C-c switches to ace-jump-mode seemlessly.
The behaviour is strongly modeled after `iy-go-to-char’ with the following differences:
- point always stays before match
- point during search is same as after exiting
- lazy highlighting courtesy of isearch
