Given text like this
the quick brown fox jumped over
ab cd ef gh ij kl
WRT Motion:Moving to the end of a word is really painful.
Starting at the end of the 2nd line, there is no keyboard way to jump to the end of each word.
Ctrl+Left jumps to the beginning of the previous word, but there is no way to get to the end of the previous word.
WRT Selection:Using the keyboard it is painful to select words on the 2nd line without getting a bunch of extra padding.
Placing the cursor at the 3rd word, Ctrl+Shift+Right selects the 2 letters plus 4 spaces
"ef "
OTOH, double-clicking on "ef", selects just those two characters -- exactly what I want.
The behavior that I think I'd like to see here is:
Place cursor at start of 2nd line.
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab"
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab cd"
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab cd ef"
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab cd ef gh"
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab cd ef gh ij"
- Ctrl+Shift+Right -- Selects "ab cd ef gh ij kl"
Is there a keyboard way to do this?
Perhaps a new command "copy-to-clipboard-trim" -- which would copy the selection minus any leading/trailing white space.
