It essentially operates like the 'Follow link under cursor' command. The only difference is that even if there is no link under the cursor, it can close the distance to a nearby link and then navigate to its destination.
The priority of choosing a link is as follows.
- Moves to the nearest link on the same line (depends on options).
- If no link is on the same line, it moves to the link closest to the cursor.
