Hi, folks. When I use “join” (alt+j or alt+J) to join lines, I notice that Kakoune inserts a space before the incoming line. I don’t expect it to do that. I mostly delete that space.
Do other people expect the current behavior? If so, then why do you prefer it?
Assuming that “join” ought not to insert that extra space, how easily can one fix it? If it seems easy, then I’d consider trying to contribute that myself.
Thank you.
Example:
invoice:
Put the cursor on the beginning of the line with “—”, then press alt+j.
Thank you! I hadn’t noticed that kakoune was selecting the intervening spaces after <a-J>. They seemed to be doing the same thing, and I decided that I might be missing something, but I didn’t have the energy at the moment to figure that out.
Is there an easy way, then, to select 7 lines and apply -then-d to every line? or to apply a composite command like g-l-<a-J>-d 7 times in a row? (I guess this would be composing a macro?)
