ctrl-arrow cursor movement is too fine-grained
Submitted by on Saturday, 14 January, 2006 - 01:36
ctrl-leftarrow and ctrl-rightarrow cycle through the beginning and end of each word, which takes twice as many keystrokes to cycle through words compared to the standard Windows operation (in Notepad and Wordpad, ctrl-arrow cycles only through the beginning of each word).
In other words, jedit jumps the cursor to the next whitespace->nonwhitespace or nonwhitespace->whitespace boundary, whereas standard Windows operation jumps the cursor only to the next whitespace->nonwhitespace boundary and ignores all nonwhitespace->whitespace boundaries.
How do I make jedit obey the Windows standard, so that cycling through words isn't so tedious?
