Most alter mode commands can be preceeded by a signed integer 
to modify its function.  In general, an integer means the
"next <integer> occurrences" and a negative number means to
preform the operation in the reverse direction. For example:
        -W      Skip backwards one word
        -3D     Delete the preceeding three characters
        2Fabc$  Find the second occurrence of string <abc>

   Sx           Move to first occurrence of character x
   F<string>$   Move to beginning of first occurrence of 
		<string>
   G<string>$   Move to end of first occurrence of <string>

   ^R   Reprint line up to current position

INSERT TEXT
   I    Insert at current position, end with $ or <CR> 
   T    Move to end of line and do "I"

   +    Insert preceeding character at current position
   'x   Insert a control-x at the current position

		insert mode

TRANSPOSE CHARACTERS
   /    Transpose next two characters
   \    Transpose previous two characters
