9. Navigate to an open tab by number: `Ngt`, where N is the tab number.



#### Global Search



1. Search in files: `Leader s f`.



2. Search in git files: `Leader s f g`.

4. Search by grep: `Leader s g`.



5. Find recently opened files: `Leader ?`.

4. Go to a specific line in the file: `:`.



5. Format the file according to formatting rules: `Leader f m`.



6. Line-comment selected lines: `g c c`.



7. Block-comment selected lines: `g b c`.



8. Go to the very top of the file: `g g`.
