In Vim editor I opted ]I on a function (in C++ code). This presented a list, which says ‘Press ENTER or type command to continue’.

Now to jump to an occurrence say 6, I type 6 – but this is not working.

What commands can I type in such a case, and how do I jump to Nth occurrence from this list?

Update:

Actually I tried :N (eg :6) – but the moment I type : Vim enters Insert mode, and the colon gets inserted in the code instead.

Update

Assuming :N approach is correct, still complete uninstall and install of Vim, without any configuration, too did not help – though now typing : does not switch Vim to insert mode.

    It should present you a list like:

    1:   345 my_func (int var) 2:  4523 my_func (int var) 3: 10032 my_func (3); 

    The second column is line numbers. Type :345 to jump to line 345.
