Multi-cursor MoL
Intro
Multi-cursor mode works through two main mechanisms: Movement and Selection Mode.
Unlike other editors where there are specific keybindings for adding cursors in specific ways, Ki gives you the freedom to add cursors by either:
- Using Movement commands to place additional cursors
- Changing the Selection Mode to split existing selections into multiple cursors
This flexibility allows you to:
- Add a cursor to the next word
- Add cursors until the last line
- Add a cursor to the previous diagnostic
- Add a cursor to an oddly specific place
- Add cursors to all lines within current selection(s)
These are just examples - the true power of multi-cursor mode comes from combining Movement and Selection Mode in creative ways. Unleash your imagination!
