Multiple selection editing

Post by nut99 »

Great editor!! Just one question: Does Akelpad support multiple selection editing, just like what EmEditor and EverEdit do? I can't find this useful feature.

Found a few similiar topics:

Found a script TextReplace.js. After a little modification, it can provide the feature roughly. :D

That is, if I press the predefined hotkey for TextReplace.js, it first try to find whether there is already a TextReplace Dialog created. If so, the script would close it and create a new one. Then the selected text can be set to both the textboxes, i.e. IDWHATE and IDWITHE, and IDWITHE gains focus.

Anyway, a native multiple selection editing (multi carets) feature would be much appreciatied.
