Hi,
Just another feature suggestion. Use case:
I've been making some changes in a source file. I've been making
the changes in two locations in the file in parallel, trying to keep
them roughly in sync as I make the changes. When I get to the end, I
notice that there was a simpler set of changes for one of the two
locations.
I'd like to be able to select a region of text and 'undo in
selection'. It is just like normal undo, but it skips over commands
in the undo list that don't affect the selection and only undoes
commands that do affect the selection. (For bonus points, the
'skipped' undo commands could be left in the undo queue, so if I
start using normal undo then they start being undone.)
I suspect that this isn't a particularly common request, so I
don't really expect it to ever be implemented, but I thought it was
better to mention the idea than not.
Be well,
Will :-}
