The Arrow keys are the primary movement keys for moving through adjacent

based on the direction of motion.
Tab and Shift-Tab keys move one word at a time forward and backward
respectively in the current direction.
Enter/Return key moves to the next word in the current direction.
Using the mouse:

in conjunction with any mouse button to switch directions.
