'[' and ']' Mappings for the Command Mode

Tip

Some of the following mappings use <localleader> key before the mapping itself. It is backslash '\' by default. You can, however, change it to any other key in your ~/.vimrc file. For example to change it to a comma ',', insert the following line

let maplocalleader = ","

and run :source ~/.vimrc to make it effective.

From now on, I assume you have re-mapped the <localleader> to a comma character , :-)
