Column Mode Toggle for VS Code

This extension allows you to toggle column selection mode (block selection) in Visual Studio Code using a keyboard shortcut — just like in Eclipse.

Features

• Toggle column (block) selection mode on/off with a single keybinding.
• Fully compatible with your existing workflow.
• No need to hold Alt+Shift for temporary selection.
• Designed for ease of use and minimal UI interference.

Usage

• Press Ctrl+Alt+C (or your custom shortcut) to toggle column mode.
• While column mode is active, select text as usual — selections will be block-based.
• Press the shortcut again to return to normal selection mode.

Installation

1. Download and install the .vsix package manually using:

   code --install-extension column-mode-toggle-0.0.1.vsix
