I am a coder and am using VS Code. That editor has a feature where, if you select the opt key on Mac (at least on my keyboard) + key up/down, the selected text will move up or down a line. If no text is selected, the line where the cursor currently is will move up or down. Here is an example
This is some text
> This is some text where the cursor currently is
And this is some more text
opt + key down =>
This is some text
And this is some more text
> This is some text where the cursor currently is
Another example:
This is some text
**The text encapsulated in
double stars** are selected
And this is some more text
opt + key down =>
This is some text
And this is some more text
**The text encapsulated in
double stars** are selected
This makes it really easy to move around paragraphs and lines without copy/paste.
I love the simplicity of this editor!
