The h command jumps to the next head, from your current position,
despite the level. So pressing h 3 times wouldn't jump to a level 3
heading -- it would jump to the third heading below where you are.
The numbers, 1 2 3 ... jump to the first heading corresponding to
that number, given that there isn't a lower level heading first. Say
there are some headings, in this order 4 5 3 4
and you are before the first 4. If you hit 4, it will go to the
first 4. If you then hit 3 it will jump to the 3. If you were,
instead to hit 4 again, it would say not found, because a 3, lower
level heading, was between. You would have to hit 3, then 4.
Hope that all makes sense.
