This exclusive mode uses Vimium to show and select links on a web page. You must install this browser extension before using this command. The "navigate", "force navigate", and "new navigate" commands initiate this mode. Once the links are shown, you just need to say the number that corresponds to the link you want to click or say "cancel". When the cursor is in an editable text field, Vimium cannot receive the keyboard shortcut which initiates it. If the cursor is in an editable text field, use the "force navigate" command, which types the escape key before the keyboard shortcut. It is not always desirable to press the escape key, so there are two variations of this command, with and without the escape key press.
