# Quickly Switch To A Buffer By Number
|
|
|
|
There are a number of different commands you can use for switching to a
|
|
buffer by its number. For example, if you want to switch to the buffer
|
|
assigned `7`, you can do `:7b` or `:e #7`. However, there is a quicker way
|
|
than typing out either of those commands.
|
|
|
|
You may already be familiar with `CTRL-^` for switching to the _alternate
|
|
file_ which is generally the previous buffer. If you precede that command
|
|
with a number, you will switch to the buffer with that number instead of the
|
|
alternate file.
|
|
|
|
From normal mode
|
|
|
|
```vimscript
|
|
7 Ctrl-^
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
will switch to buffer `7`.
|
|
|
|
See `:h Ctrl-^` for more details.
