Curly quotes: because reasons. 😉 In Insert mode:
Ctl+K '6
will give you an open curly single quote, andCtl+K '9
will give you the closing curly single quote.- Similarly,
Ctl+K "6
will give you an open curly single quote, andCtl+K "9
will give you the closing curly single quote.
Visual mode: turns out you can just hit o
when in Visual mode to move the cursor to the other end of the selection. Handy!
