Hi,
I want to duplicate each line where a certain string occurs.
* I select the text I want to search for and type Cmd-E * Cmd-F to find all in the document * Shift-Cmd-L to select the entire line for each occurrence
At this point, I typed Shift-Cmd-D expecting a duplicate of each line to be inserted below their respective selections. I received this error message:
I assume this is because the command doesn't (yet) support duplicating lines with multiple carets.

Correct, commands in general does not work with multiple carets.
My plan is to run the command for each caret/selection, unless their input/output would overlap, since it seems unrealistic to expect every single command to be updated to handle multiple carets/selections — there might be a way for a command to set that it can handle it, as I see some commands that could do special things, e.g. Align Assignments after ⌥⌘F — but this is all future talk.
