Description

Better Selection

This is a Fabric mod for Minecraft that makes text more pleasant to select by improving the "move by word" feature (Ctrl+← and Ctrl+→).

Q&A

Does it support non-left-to-right scripts?

Yes, it does.

Does it support macOS?

Yes, macOS should be supported properly:

  • ⌘ Command+← moves the cursor to the beginning of the line,
  • ⌘ Command+→ moves the cursor to the end of the line,
  • ⌘ Command+⌫ Backspace deletes everything to the left of the cursor,
  • ⌘ Command+⌦ Delete deletes everything to the right of the cursor,
  • Shortcuts that use Ctrl on Windows use ⌥ Option on macOS.

Does it fix MC-121278?

No, it does not. But I made another mod that does: Universal Shortcuts.
