Select a line with triple click

[gpfsmurf]

As for CTRL+L, my vote/suggestion would be to make currently selected line lower-case. I've seen that elsewhere and it makes sense.

Personnally I like the current behavior (CTRL+L = selectLine)

You can add something like this to User\Default.sublime-keymap to override the default behavior:

Code: Select all

<binding key="ctrl+l" command="lowerCase"/>

A line cannot be selected triple clicking it, why?

Why should it be???

Here is a quick survey of applications I have installed on my WinXP system. These applications support triple click to select the entire line (or paragraph, where applicable):

Notepad2
Notepad++
Wordpad
Firefox
Internet Explorer
Google Chrome
Word
Powerpoint
Outlook Express
Photoshop

These applications do NOT support triple click:

Notepad
Sublime Text

How's that for an argument?

We solved this long time ago, I posted a script that allows sublime and pretty much any app to have triple click. Why bring it back ?

Because this a case where Sublime Text is missing a feature which a part of a de facto Windows standard, and shouldn't rely on hacks requiring third party / external applications. We're posting here because we want to make a great program even better.

Agree. I hope jon adds it, I myself don't like to resort to 3rd party apps unless necessary.

I agree on this, I use this a lot myself as well. Even though I'm trying to get more into keyboard shortcuts, saving time and using the mouse (RSI?). Less mouse = less lost time.

Although not as user friendly as triple click, in order to select a whole line with a mouse, all you have to do is single click or double click on the line and drag your cursor down to the next line.

This works in Notepad.

Triple-clicking to select the line has been added in 20100411 beta. Thanks!
