Smart caret and Delete next word #228

Open LucioMenci opened 1 week ago

LucioMenci commented 1 week ago

Hi,

I'd like to have the behaviour of "Smart caret positioning on java names" option splitted in two different options. The first for the move of the caret (like Ctrl + left and Ctrl + right). I want to move at the start or the end of the name, not just in the middle. I'd like the behaviour when this option is off to NOT have the CamelCase recognition.

The second with the "Delete next word" command. When I join two lines, and the indentation was made with tabulations, ctrl + del has to remove all whitespaces (spaces and tabs) until the first valid letter. This is the behaviour when Smart caret positioning is on. I don't know if the behaviour of ctr + del (recognition of tab characters as whtespaces) has to be changed to the user's taste. Maybe, but in this case, it has not to be changed inside an option that has another meaning. Otherwise, maybe is more useful if it was always like the "Smart caret position" was setted on.

Thank you

Hi @LucioMenci, idea sounds ok - will you contribute a PR for that?
