Hi. I'm finding it very hard to use the editor because it so un-Mac -like. I wonder if you could address a number of these issues:
- meta-arrow keys don't work as expected. Command-left or right should go to end of line, option-left or right should go to next word. Command-up and command-down move the caret to the top or bottom, respectively. Holding shift while doing any of these selects from the current point to the new point.
- triple-click should select the entire line, and the return at the end. The selection highlight should extend across the page.
- After selecting an entire line (i.e. with triple-click), I should be able to type Command-C, Command-V, Command-V, and end up with the line duplicated, and the insertion caret blinking on the line after the second copy of the line.
- Copy & paste seem to be very flaky. I was unable to reliably copy selected text.
- Tab/back-tab (shift-tab) should not shift an entire line. No matter what the selection, pressing the tab key should either insert a tab, or replace the selection with a tab. (related to this, I really want to use real tabs, not expand tabs into spaces).
- To shift an entire line, or block of lines, the convention on the Mac is Command-[ and Command-]. You select all or part of a line, then type Command-[, and the entire block is shifted to the left one tab stop (similarly, Command-] shifts to the right one tab stop).
Thanks!
