Answer 1

I'm not sure if you mean the nth character or nth occurrence of a character; the second has been answered so I will answer the first.

^ will take you to the start of the line excluding whitespace (so to the first non-white column) and | (pipe) or 0 (zero) will take you to the first character. Then l (lowercase L) will take you to the right; and 7l will take you seven characters to the right. So all together, to go to the (n+1)th character on the line, for n=7, 07l.
