That&#8217;s where his post is useful: it&#8217;s an excellent reminder of those key bindings and the functionality they provide. <\/p>\n<p> For example, did you know, or remember, that \u3010<kbd>Ctrl<\/kbd>+<kbd>x<\/kbd> <kbd>4<\/kbd> <kbd>c<\/kbd>\u3011 provides a clone of the current buffer in another window? Or even that \u3010<kbd>Ctrl<\/kbd>+<kbd>x<\/kbd> <kbd>4<\/kbd> <kbd>f<\/kbd>\u3011 opens a new file in the other window?
