The motion that determines the range of a change, delete, yank
or shift operation can have its own count. Thus the commands
'5dd' and 'd5d' are equivalent: both delete 5 lines.
When the command itself also has a count the two values are
multiplied. Thus the command '2d3w' deletes 6 words and '2D3G'
deletes from the current line to line 6.
(When dealing with structured data it might make sense to think in
units of 3 words so '2d3w' is deleting 2 such units. It doesn't
seem quite as sensible to express 'delete from current line to line 6'
as '2D3G' but vi permits it.)
