Hi Allan,

When I double-click on a PHP variable name it selects the whole word (without the preceding $) as expected. Because I want to select the whole thing I automatically do a Shift-Left Arrow to add the $ but something strange happens and I get about half the word selected without the $. Any chance of fixing this?

My expected behaviour is whichever arrow key (left or right) you first start using after selecting the text should allow you to expand or contract the selection at the appropriate end.

Also a suggestion (which BBEdit supports) is that a second shift double click on a different word should select everything between and including the two words.

Thanks for your time, James
