Same thing but reversed with multiple cursors :/

That's actually the biggest thing I miss about VSCode

https://github.com/mg979/vim-visual-multi

I also missed multiple courses, but I started using vim-visual-multi in my nvim config and it's been great. There's a few others I tried that I couldn't get to work quite right (usually some weird conflict with nvim-cmp) but I've had the best success with vim-visual-multi.

I'm gonma bookmark and try this next time I find the courage to mess around my nvim config. That last none_ls breaking change has made me very hesitant to mess around with things that aren't just colorschemes ngl.

I also tried https://github.com/smoka7/multicursors.nvim and the experience was horrible. Then I tried https://github.com/brenton-leighton/multiple-cursors.nvim and I absolutely love it. It has conflict with cmp, but the README has great tutorial on disabling cmp only when using multiple cursors, and dealing with other plugins to maks them work or disable them in the multicursor mode.

helix has a pretty good mc system in the select mode.

search in selection is such a cool workflow

space-r ename symbol for easymode.

This feels like something I also do in neovim unless I'm misunderstanding you completely. Is it highlighting text and having yoir search apply just to the highlighted text?

If so, yes it's great whenever you use it

[–] Jumuta 1 points 7 months ago

yeah, and helix spawns a cursor at every match

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

I've been meaning to check helix out for a while now but haven't found the time :(

Same here, but Atom. Maybe I should start using Atom again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

FYI atom project is dead. There is a community form available but it was to buggy for me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I know it's dead. I still have it, and it still does all I want from an IDE.
