Simultaneous editing

Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

It is Column Selection and multi-cursor editing which is fun to have.

If you don't mind using a different editor at the same time as PB's editor, this is available in:

Notepad++, and there are PB language definitions here in the forum if you search for them.

Visual Studio Code, which I am enjoying more and more; and it is even easier when you install PureBasic extensions by Eddy R.


keep PureBasic editor open and it will reload the file you are editing on the other editor

I often use this function in Notepad++ and Visual Studio.

I guess it somewhat depends on if this is a feature already in Scintilla.

I always do my "complex" editing in UltraEdit atm.
