Go to column in Emacs

I was looking for a command/function to jump to a specific column in emacs. It turned out there is already one built in emacs: move-to-column and is bind to M-g Tab.

Even better Evil has already defined a command evil-goto-column and by default it’s bind to |.

So to jump to column 10 in evil normal mode, do this:

10 |

NOTE: column number is 0 based
