Screen Movement Marathon

Estimated time: 10 minutes

Task Instructions

Navigate large files efficiently using screen movement commands

Practice navigating through this large document using screen movement commands. Use Ctrl+f to move forward one screen, Ctrl+b to move back, Ctrl+d for half screen down, and Ctrl+u for half screen up.

Learning objectives

  • Master screen-based movement commands
  • Learn efficient navigation in large files
  • Develop muscle memory for page movements

Required Keystrokes

This lesson requires you to use specific keystrokes to complete it. Your submission will be evaluated based on whether you used the required keystrokes mentioned below, rather than matching a specific output.

\<C-f\>
Use Ctrl+f to page forward
\<C-b\>
Use Ctrl+b to page backward

What This Means

  • Your solution must include the required keystroke patterns
  • The order of keystrokes may matter depending on the exercise
  • You'll still need to achieve the expected output
  • This helps you practice specific Vim techniques

Helpful commands:

Command Description
Ctrl+f Move forward one screen
Ctrl+b Move backward one screen
Ctrl+d Move down half screen
Ctrl+u Move up half screen
Ctrl+e Scroll down one line
Ctrl+y Scroll up one line

Hints

  • Ctrl+f = forward full screen (like Page Down)
  • Ctrl+b = backward full screen (like Page Up)
  • Ctrl+d/u are gentler, moving only half a screen
