Expand, remap keys

| Feb 20, 2017 at 8:58 | comment | added | Tetsujin | ah, gotcha. I guess it's unlikely to work anywhere that isn't true, couldn't work in any regular text app. | |
| Feb 20, 2017 at 8:57 | comment | added | GoingMyWay | Cool, it is right on the mac bash command line and vim. | |
| Feb 20, 2017 at 8:57 | comment | added | John N | @Tetsujin - it's most useful in a terminal: the cursor position won't change when you select text. Try selecting a command a few lines back, then press Shift-Command-V, or doing the same in vi/emacs/nano. | |

| Feb 20, 2017 at 8:55 | comment | added | Tetsujin | I'm struggling to see how that works. If I have some text selected & want to paste it somewhere, I first have to move the cursor to where I want to paste, which unselects... :/ | |
