Epsilon: TI-style copy & paste

Created on 28 Jun 2018  路  5Comments  路  Source: numworks/epsilon

I see that there are cut/copy/paste buttons that do nothing at least in the Python editor. I think copy & paste by line would be a good way to do it. However, unlike TI's implementation, one should be able to take a line and paste it on the current line, rather than make a new line.

That is another way to do it. I would suggest a hybrid where, if you have nothing selected, it copies/cuts the whole line but will only copy parts with a selection.

What about holding shift while moving the cursor to select certain areas of text to copy? Then pasting either at the cursor's location or pasting and replacing a selected area of text?

@0b101 That'd require a couple of new events at the ion layer and minor changes to differentiate between a shift being active (ie. pressing and releasing the shift key as usual) and holding down the shift key and then pressing up/down/left or right. If I'm not mistaken the keyboard matrix on the device can handle this, so overall it should be fairly easy to do.
