I use Option-left/right arrow to jump across words very frequently in BBEdit and everything else I edit text with. Different apps have different rules for how the cursor will jump. macOS itself (judging from TextEdit) counts punctuation as part of the adjacent word when jumping, but BBEdit insists on stopping on each side of punctuation when it comes across it. For instance, the phrase "Option-left/right arrow" takes six presses of Option and an arrow key to move the cursor from one side to the other, but only four in TextEdit, Nisus Writer, and some other apps. Is there an option to change this behavior in BBEdit so I don't feel like I'm constantly being hung up as I navigate this way?
