The version of Scintilla used by Geany (3.5.x) does not support multiple 
selection, but the next (major 4.x+) version does.  But that needs an upgrade 
of the minimum compiler version to build Geany.  So until the compiler version 
requirement is lifted and when whatever changes are made to support a new major 
version of Scintilla the capability won't be available.

Also as Scintilla is soon to release a new major version it has been decided to 
wait and skip directly to that.

I checked that out. Yeah it does work but it's not very useful if the lines you 
need to edit aren't right on top of each other.
Say, you want to edit every 3rd line. In that case `Search --> Replace` is the 
only way to do it as of now I guess.

[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Multiline editing ? (feature request) (#2551)

2020-07-18 Thread codinghedgehog-python
The only thing that I really miss in Geany is multiline editing. Can it be 
implemented anytime soon ? Geany became
my editor to-go and it would be awesome being able to edit multiple lines at 
the same time.
