In this mode, the `w`, `e` and `W` motions, which jump forward by word, now treat an empty line as a place to stop.\n\nWhen these motions skip over blank space, they no longer run across empty lines. Before, blank space was skipped straight across line breaks.\n\n**Why**\n\nThese motions now behave more like they do in real vim, so moving through a prompt with several paragraphs lands where a vim user expects.\n\n- Area: Terminal UI\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 0\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
