jump-key README

This extension is HEAVILY based on jump extension from Wenfang Du. I adjusted functionality a bit to suit my coding style more.

Features

  • Jump to the start of character groups and empty pairs ("", '', (), [], {}) with character-codes inserted in those jumpable places. Alt+,
  • Jump to the end of character groups and empty pairs ("", '', (), [], {}) with character-codes inserted in those jumpable places. Alt+.
  • Select to the start of character groups with character-codes inserted in those jumpable places. Alt+shift+,
  • Select to the end of character groups with character-codes inserted in those jumpable places. Alt+shift+.
  • Now support multi-cursor!!: Add a new multi-cursor to another location
  • Add a cursor to the start of a word. Alt+ctrl+,
  • Add a cursor to the end of a word. Alt+ctrl+.
  • Empty lines matching -> Now you can jump to any empty lines

The character-codes inserted use color and background color that are nice to the eyes, and match my favorite color theme: Catppuccin Frappe.

Known Issues

The only issue I might improve in the future is the key tracking while in jump mode.

Now if you mess up or want to change keys you pressed, it doesn't work.
