1. Start of line vervus EOL / End of line :
   • $ or g_: Jumps to last char of the current line
     • $: Jumps to TRUE ENDING of current line
     • g_: Jumps to last non-blank of current line
   • 0 or ^: Jumps to first char of the current line
     • 0: Jumps to TRUE BEGINNING of current line
     • ^: Jumps to first non-blank of current line
   • TL;DR –> 0 < ^ < g_ <$
2. Under insert mode, if you wish to add to the last line:
   • Insert Mode –> Ctrl + o –> $
   • Note: Ctrl+o allows user to temp switch over to normal mode for one single command only

3. Top of the file vs the end of the file

   • First line of file (you have 3 options)
     • gg = first line only
     • gg0 = first line + FOL !!!
     • :1
     • 1G with explicit number 1
   • Last line in file (you have 2 options)
     • :$ last line only
     • G last line only
       • These 2 are equivalent: :$ = G
     • G$ last line + EOL !! (Best optionGG$)
   • TL:DR –> gg0 < gg < G < G$
