Ooh fun, these all take 2-3 key presses
And these more/less key presses
But it misses the point, of course every editor can do just about anything, but there is a lot more mouse involved and learning it is more difficult because the keybinds aren't combinatorial
1 is just going to highlight right?
2, how about 6 words, 10 words, 100 words
3, 4 I use all the time
5 if your edit locations don't line up so that you can alt drag a single column, this is what I mean by jagged. I would use a combination of find and repeat action.
Start from scratch - skill issue :p
Yes exactly my point. How often do you need to delete exactly 100 words? Do you count them? Obviously not - you probably guess and delete 50, and then 25 and then 20 etc.
