Hi,
This is exactly what I was looking for a day or so back. The problem
with ctrl-w is that is can take several keystrokes to select the method
/ class you are in and the exact number of key strokes depends on the
code and your position in it as well.
Can we not have a seperate command bound to a new key that will, in one
go, select the current method (and optionally its comments) or if you
are in a class but outside of a method then select the entire class
(again inc comments as an option)
I think this would be a very good time saver
Any possability of having this added please ?
