Well, there're some possibilities to do that. First in my mind would be if the number of words is fixed, in your example three, to record a macro: moveWordRight moveWordLeftAndModifySelection moveWordLeftAndModifySelection moveWordLeftAndModifySelection and bind it to any key equivalent In general the macro will do: 1: place the caret at the end of the current word 2...4: expand the selection word by word hans
Yeah that works, but that's not the whole story :) I need to get the last 3 words and then evaluate them based on what they are. Is that possible after selecting them with a macro? Sorry for the newbie questions! Christoph
