Easier navigation within Vim help files
vim-help provides several normal-mode maps to ease navigation within help files.

q |
Close the current help window |
<enter> |
Follow link under cursor (equivalent to ctrl-]) |
<backspace> |
Jump back a tag (equivalent to ctrl-t) |
<leader>j/k |
Jump to next/prior quickfix entry (equivalent to :cnext / :cprev) |
<leader>q |
Disable all vim-help maps (handy for editing vim help files) |
<F1> |
Cycles through terms from current line for :help |
<shift-F1> |
Jump back to prior help location. |
|
Note
|
Jump to prior help location only works if you have MarkMyWords installed. |
The :TopicToClipboard command sets the @* register with a :help
command to jump to the nearest help tag prior to the current cursor
position. If that help tag is more than 9 lines away, the help command
will include an offset to the current cursor line. If you want the
cursor line offset even though the help tag is less than 10 lines away,
use :TopicToClipboard! instead.
