The original plugin: https://github.com/easymotion/vim-easymotion
The emacs version: https://github.com/PythonNut/evil-easymotion

Describe: the easy-motion plugin allows to trigger an interactive jump cursor query on current screen.
E.g. Start an easy-motion on a word object in current screen, then all matched location will be numbered (from aa to zz, or other order), and waiting for the number input, to jump the cursor to the target location.


The easy-motion is also captable to filter locations via keywords search, number all matched locations, and ask the numebr for input, to jump the cursor to the target location.

The typical location filter can be: all words before/after cursor, all lines before/after cursor, ask for a search keyword.

This would be a quick way to move the cursor to anywhere on screen.
Although this is a vim-plugin (emacs may have similar plugins), its function can work both in vi-mode and emacs-mode. A command like jump-words-{before/after}-cursor or jump-lines to start the interactive jump cursor query, and ask for a number input (assuming the items are numbered from aa to zz), and jump the cursor to the target location.
