Do you like your cursor at the beginning or end of words?

Most of the time it doesn't really matter. But if you know you want to append to a word you can hit that target immediately by using `e` (`ea`). Or if you want to prepend, you can use `wi`.

Note that `i` and `a` have a similar pairing to `w` and `e`.

As it happens, I do actually use both `i` and `a` already. So, to celebrate my first decade on vim, I'm going to try to add `e` to my repertoire.
