"mark" entries then open them all at once
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. No, it's not a problem. It's just a nice to have.
Describe the solution you'd like When you open a picker find files or something else you get a bunch of entries. Is there a way to mark the entries then open them up all at once. Mark entries you'd like to open, and then press a keybinding to have all the marked entries just fill your screen in different splits.
Describe alternatives you've considered Other than manually opening the picker and selecting the right entry, no.
Additional context
In my case I'd like to open both of the entries inside the green box. I can do that sure but I'll need to open the picker twice. That's how I thought of this.
You can send results to quickfix (with ctrl+q by default) and do whatever you want.
Better yet you can selection/mark the entries of interest with tab/shift+tab then only open the selected entries in a quickfix list with alt+q.
and from quickfix we can open all files at once?
For testing purpose I've selected two files and sent them to quickfix list but couldn't find a way to open both at once in h quickfix
The problem with this question is it's not clear what "open them all at once" means and it can mean different things to different people. Eg. open as a split (vertical or horizontal), new tab, or just :edit, or with or without :drop, etc.
Not saying it's not doable or that it won't be ever offered. It's just not as simple as adding an open_all binding.
@jamestrew I updated the description. I added
