f hints

f{hint}

Start QuickHint mode. In QuickHint mode, every hintable item (according to the 'hinttags' XPath query) is assigned a unique number. You can now either type this number or type any part of the URL which you want to follow, and it is followed as soon as it can be uniquely identified. Often it is can be useful to combine these techniques to narrow down results with some letters, and then typing a single digit to make the match unique. Pressing <Leader> (defaults to :let mapleader = "\") toggles "escape-mode", where numbers are treated as normal text.
<Esc> stops this mode at any time.

F

F{hint}

Start QuickHint mode, but open link in a new tab. Like normal QuickHint mode (activated with f) but opens the link in a new tab.

;

;{mode}{hint}

Start an extended hint mode. ExtendedHint mode is useful, since in this mode you can yank link locations, open them in a new window or save images. If you want to yank the location of hint 24, press ;y to start this hint mode. Then press 24 to copy the hint location.

{mode} can be either one of:

These work like the f or F mappings but will keep you in AlwaysHint mode. This is useful if you want to open many links of one page without pressing f or F each time. Hintable elements for all extended hint modes can be set in the 'extendedhinttags' XPath string.
