Vscode: Add "join line" keyboard shortcut

Created on 4 Jan 2016  路  7Comments  路  Source: microsoft/vscode

This is a feature request! I'm hoping I have the right repository.

Other editors like Sublime Text and Atom have a keyboard shortcut for joining lines. In these editors, you can hit cmd+j ( or ctrl+j on Windows ) to append the following line to the current line. It would be really great to add this to Code!

Loving the editor so far!

:+1: I find this feature very handy.

There's already a extension for that: https://github.com/wmaurer/vscode-join-lines

But I agree that it should be in the core.

I had to install this extension, but this is such a basic operation, I believe it should be in the core, too

I think this is a very useful feature :+1: along with other missing commands listed in the above referenced issues from atom & sublime. Vscode would be a lot better if it has all the commands available in both sublime & atom.

Looks like it (with a few other commands from ST) landed https://code.visualstudio.com/updates#_sublime-text-compatibility

Broken link to the release notes that included this feature, please try this link to see November 2016, header "Sublime Text compatibility" , which introduced this action: Join Lines - editor.action.joinLines https://code.visualstudio.com/updates/v1_8#_sublime-text-compatibility
