In response to David Pike <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: In case you don't know about these, here are commands that will do the same thing.
"[a large integer, say N] <up>" to quickly get to the top of the file that I am editting,
gg
"[N] <down>" to quickly get to the last line of the file
G
Also, while part way through a file, "[N] dd" or "[N] d <Enter>" was a handy way of deleting all remaining lines in the file
