Need Help with Splitting the Selection into Lines

Open cvladan opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Can someone please help me? I need assistance with a script that would provide the same functionality as in Sublime Text or VSCode.

Specifically, the VSCode command "insertCursorAtEndOfEachLineSelected" originally from Sublime Text: "Splitting the Selection into Lines", see here: Sublime Text Documentation

Simply put, I don't understand how to iterate through the lines of the current selection, regardless of whether it's a multi-edit or a classic single edit.

Thanks!

P.S. And let me not forget, thanks to the author for the useful plugin!

You might be interested in my other plugin, BetterMultiSelection

If you have a rectangular selection (a normal selection won't work) you can use the keyboard navigation as expected, such as End, Home, Left/Right, Shift+... and it will create multiple cursors.

Just figured I'd point this out real quick...don't have access to try out any Lua code right now.
