Editable text field doesn't listen to Shift + Home/End about elements HOT 6 CLOSED

Fixed

from elements.

Additionally/optionally, Ctrl+Left/Right Arrow should jump by "words" (and Shift+Ctrl+Left/Right select by "words" ).

BTW, probably mac centric, IDK, but moving by words is option/alt+Left/Right and selecting words is shift+option/alt+Left/Right

OK, I implemented using the option key for moving cursor across words in the Mac and control key in Windows and Linux. Please test on Windows. It seems the Mac is the only one using the option key for moving cursor across words.

@joriswave BTW, another way to select all is by triple click.

Works - thank you! 🙏 The only thing now is that usually a "word" doesn't only end with a space character, but also a non-letter character (don't know the exact rule here, or if there even is a standard), such that you can, e.g., skip over the sub folders within a file path or url with Ctrl+Left/Right.

There are precise rules for that dictated by the Unicode Line Breaking Algorithm. See the linebreak library that Elements uses: https://github.com/foliojs/linebreak which also deals with word breaks. No, the slash is not a word break.
