Ability to add multi-cursor with keyboard

Feature archive

Good news!

I came across this thread while I was researching for my multi-cursor plugin (personally my pain point was that once you create a multi-selection, you can’t click on it again to deselect).

Since I was feeling groovy, I added the basic sublime text keyboard shortcuts too:

  • Ctrl-D: Select next occurrence of selected word
  • Ctrl-Alt-Up: Add a cursor to the line above
  • Ctrl-Alt-Down: Add a cursor to the line below

I’m just investigating how to publish it, but if you’re interested…

At some point I’ll look at adding the “select all occurrences of selection” and “move every cursor to the end of the line” too :+1:

I’ll post again when it’s published!
