Ace-jump

Ace-jump-mode can help you to move your cursor to ANY position in emacs by using only 3 times key press. It is an fast/direct cursor location minor mode. It will create the N-Branch search tree internal and marks all the possible position with predefined keys in within the whole emacs view. Allowing you to move to the character/word/line almost directly. You'll understand perfectly with this short demo.
