What vscode packages are those? Always interested in being more efficient in transforming text.

Sure, some I use all the time, they mostly work on multiple cursors so I end up doing Vim/Emacs level stuff in (my opinion) simpler/faster ways: - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=chunsen.bracket-select https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=chunsen.... (I bind to M-k M-a) (This one enables me select, cut and type the new text - this is much faster than backspacing/selecting for me. I feel like this is a "vim pattern" that I'm reusing here) I also have Alfred (MacOS) installed, and it saves your clipboard history. This ends up giving me sort of an Emacs-like kill ring, system wide. - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rsbondi.highlight-words https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rsbondi.... (I bind to M-k M-k) - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=janjoerke.align-by-regex https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=janjoerk... - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Asuka.insertnumbers https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Asuka.in... - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=earshinov.filter-lines https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=earshino... - https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jonsmithers.open-in-vim https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=jonsmith... There is also https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hajdaini.select-until-pattern https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=hajdaini... and https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rduvql.vscode-jumper https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=rduvql.v... that I have installed but never got to use. I would love to record a video showing the kinds of text changes I do all the time, but the really useful happens on real life situations that one cannot record publicly.
