I dont understand the multiple cursors, is this better than search and replace? I am guessing you are replacing it to the same thing at every cursor, but I guess the value is then that the from could be different at the cursors?
- xrendan 3y agoI use this all the time and you can copy a range of values with multiple cursors and then paste them into the same size range. It's nice for hashes or modifying static lists that all need the same changes, but are annoying to regex for
- _V_ 3y agoIt works perfectly together - one is not necessarily replacement for the other. For more complicated things or bigger changes you would go with regex search & replace or sed/awk/grep but for small one-shot things it is way quicker to just click 5 times and do whatever you need to.
