Lysosome -- A tiny selection plugin

Lysosome provides an easy way to jump to the start or the end of a selection using the cursor keys. It also displays info about the current selection in the status bar.

Tested with Intellij IDEA builds #2235 and #3200 and should work with any build in between.

Jump to the start or end of a selection

A tiny bit of caret movement behaviour which I'm used to in other editors. Inside a selection in the editor press the left cursor key to jump to the start of a selection and unselect the text. Press the right cursor key to jump to the end of the selection and unselect the text. This emulates behaviour found in many other common editors.

Feedback I received for version 1.0 of Lysosome


Small but nice. Hopefully future versions of Idea will make this the default.

Cool, thanks smile

-- Thomas Singer


Very nice. In combination with Ctrl-W, you get an easy jump-out-of-scope, which is very very nice. Thanks, Bas.

This plugin is dedicated to my father, who passed away rather unexpectedly on 18 November 2004.
