EasyMotion is now completely
- **Well-behaved**: It's consistent with the default motions of Vim and works well in all modes. And it now suports dot repeat.
- **Configurable**. You can easily configure its behavior and map it to any key you want.
Even though some default behaviors where modified and many new features where added, I carefully considered backward compatibility, so you can easily update and enjoy significant benefit!

### Two key highlighting
When EasyMotion runs out of single characters to highlight movement targets, it now tells you
right away both keys you have press.
When EasyMotion runs out of single characters to highlight movement targets, it
now shows you immediately the keys you have to press.
In previous versions you would see the same character repeated over and over again for distant
movement targets. You first had to type this key before the highlighting changed to expose the
next key you had to press.
In previous versions you could not see the next character you would needed to
press until you entered the first one. This made movement over long distances
less fluid. Now you can see at a glance exactly which characters to select to
get to your destination.
### Bidirectional motions
All motions now come in a bidirectional variant (e.g. `<Plug>(easymotion-s)`, `<Plug>(easymotion-bd-w)` and so forth).
By default you can already jump forward or backward with `<Leader>s`. A useful trick is to map `nmap s <Plug>(easymotion-s)` to use `s` instead and save one keystroke!

### Within line motion
Every motion can also be restricted to the current line (e.g. `<Plug>(easymotion-sl)`,

Every motion also has variants that are restricted to just the current line
(e.g. `<Plug>(easymotion-sl)`, `<Plug>(easymotion-bd-wl)`, etc...). This can be
helpful if you find the full search distracting or slows down vim.
### hjkl motions
EasyMotion can be configured to avoid repetitive use of the `h` `j` `k` and `l`keys.
