Local/Global

Selection modes that are categorized here are those that are applicable both locally (current file) and globally (across the workspace).

There are 3 categories of Local/Global selection modes:

1. Text Search
2. LSP-based
3. Misc

These selection modes are nested under [/] (Find (Local)) or g (Find (Global)).

When using Find (Local) mode, [ searches backward and ] searchs forward if no matching selection is found under cursor.

Shortcut (;)

All selection modes under this Local/Global category are non-contiguous, and since they require at least two keypresses, Ki provides a shortcut:

To set the current selection mode back to the last non-contiguous selection modes, press ;.

For example, after you searched for a term (either locally or globally), and you've changed to another contiguous selection mode (such as Word), pressing ; will set the selection mode back to the term search.
