Keybindings while editing text #282

Open soegaard opened 5 years ago

soegaard commented 5 years ago

Feature request: Lines beginning with a semi colon consists of text. Therefore the keybindings ought to work as "text" operations and not "s-exp" operations.

The example that keeps tripping me up:

While editing the text in a comment, I hit alt- to go back a word --- and is always surprised when the cursor moves out of the comment to the beginning of the previous s-expression.

In short: I'd love for alt+left and alt+right to become backward-word and forward-word in comment lines.
