Hi, I love VassistX. Its great!
Ok now for my feature request... :-)

I am often moving up and down a large function.
Down/up arrow it too slow, it hits too many lines.
The Next scope function in VassistX is often too big a step.

I think I want Next/Previous Code Block
It navigates in the Y direction in a file

A block line is any line of code that does not have white space or { }
Non-block are lines with space, tabs, newline and { } char.

So if you started at line 102

line#
100 if( isX )
101 {
102 foo();
103 //stuff
104 // more stuff
105 }
106 else
107 {
108 bar(1);
109 bar(2);
110 bar(3);
111 }
112
112 return false;

Alt-Down arrow is Next Block three times would move the cursor
You would hop to
106 else
108 bar(1)
112 return false

this is a lot faster...
Prev Block would move you up to the end of the previous block of course.
