Hi all,
Continually I have problems to select lines and select words with # or @.
With ctrk+d I select all the word:
Loremipsum
With ctrk+d I select only “Lorem”
Lorem@ipsum
Other problem selecting lines:
With ctrl+l I select line but position cursor remain in the start of: “Incididunt”. it’s possible configurate it to the position cursor remain in the end of the line?.
More detail:
Thanks in advance
This is because the # and @ characters are in the word_separators settings in the preferences; as the name suggests this setting controls the characters that are considered to separate words.
The default value for the setting is:
// Characters that are considered to separate words
"word_separators": "./\\()\"'-:,.;<>~!@#$%^&*|+=[]{}`~?",
If you copy the setting to your user preferences and remove the @ and # characters, they will no longer be considered separators and this should work for you.
I don’t quite understand what you mean by this one, sorry.
Thanks OdatNurd for you reply,
Sorry for my bad question Here I give more detail in the picture
There is no config for that.
I am afraid you have to write your own plugin or complex keybindings if you don’t want \n to be selected while keeping consecutive lines can be selected by repeatedly pressing Ctrl+L.
I remember there is a guy asking this several months ago…
I may have made the problem too complicated. Maybe you just want a command to select a line without selecting the \n. In that case, I think using chained command is a simple way. Or probably a macro since the former plugin is doing kinda the same thing?
{
// select the current line without selecting the line ending
"keys": ["whatever keybinging you like"],
"command": "chain",
"args": {
"commands": [
[ "expand_selection", { "to": "line" } ],
[ "move", { "by": "characters", "extend": true, "forward": false } ],
],
},
},
