This is both a cry for multiple cursors and also a question about how multiple cursors really work. Sublime Text basically changed the game in terms of programming. However, it is still a pretty editor and not an IDE like Netbeans or Visual Studio. If I am not mistaking Sublime was created by a single programmer... whereas Visual Studio, Netbeans and Eclipse has an army of people behind it. Yet... I still cannot do the following:
I want to select the first four occurrences of the variable $test in one attempt.
Using Sublime Text it's pretty easy... you just select $test and press CMD/CTRL+D or whatever shot-cut you assigned to select one occurrence at a time. But in Netbeans, Visual Studio and Eclipse they have rectangular selection, smart selection or whatever.... why no one created an identical multiple cursor plugin already??
Now the other question is... how exactly multiple cursors work? What creates those new instances of each cursor? I might be able to create a plugin of my own... and share it with the world.
Not to sound ungrateful for your continued presence on Neowin (which I prefer) 😛 But would you consider a subscription to just have all the third party ads turned off by us?
It's $2.33 per month for the ad-free subscription, but it is also there for assistance and support with all the running costs.
Like everything, it is becoming increasingly harder to do this, we even try to offset it with Amazon affiliate commissions (if we could finance totally through that instead of ads, I would) 😛
Honestly, I don't remember accepting or refusing cookies following a prompt, because I've accepted or refused cookies on several other sites.
On the other hand, I remember seeing ads, before the start of the available articles (on the home page), and on the right. If the trackers I've mentioned are part of the cookies I have to accept (as well as those below), trackers that are detected by my antivirus as adware during the weekly scan, they'll remain where they are. The vast majority of cookies blocked by the Host file were added by Unchecky.
I'd say so, but are Doubleclick, Scorecardresearch, Opencandy, file2desktop, etc. among those that should be accepted? If not, then I'd say no.
