Today I learned that Vim has some special marks which it sets automatically:
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
`. | jump to position where last change occurred in current buffer |
`" | jump to position where last exited current buffer |
`0 | jump to position in last file edited (when exited Vim) |
`1 | like `0 but the previous file (also `2 etc) |
'' | jump back (to line in current buffer where jumped from) |
`` | jump back (to position in current buffer where jumped from) |
'[ or '] | jump to beginning/end of previously changed or yanked text |
'< or '> | jump to beginning/end of last visual selection |
The funny thing is VsVim displays these in the gutter by default and I never knew what the symbols meant. Vscode-vim has an option to display marks in the gutter but only the regular marks and not these.
