Lesson 1.1: MOVING THE CURSOR

** To move the cursor, press the `h`, `j`, `k`, `l` keys as indicated. **

          ↑
          k         Hint: The `h`{normal} key is at the left and moves left.
     ← h    l →           The `l`{normal} key is at the right and moves right.
         j                The `j`{normal} key looks like a down arrow.
         ↓

 1. Move the cursor around the screen until you are comfortable.

 2. Hold down the down key (`j`{normal}) until it repeats.
    Now you know how to move to the next lesson.

 3. Using the down key, move to Lesson 1.2.

NOTE: If you are ever unsure about something you typed, press <Esc> to place
      you in Normal mode. Then retype the command you wanted.

NOTE: The cursor keys should also work. But using hjkl you will be able to
      move around much faster, once you get used to it.
