Fix for next word/previous word Eclipse bug?

Kenneth McDonald

10/16/2006 11:14:00 PM

As far as I know, this isn't a ruby/eclipse bug, but I certainly haven't
found a general fix for it, so was wondering if anyone knowledgeable
about the Ruby Eclipse plugin might have suggestions.

In Eclipse (my version at least, which _is_ up to date, according to the
updater), the "Next Word" move command (bound to ctrl-right-arrow,
typically I think) has a bug; it simply goes to the end of the line.
Have others experienced this? Is there a fix?

Much less annoyingly (but still annoyingly), the Previous Word command
stops between whitespace characters, i.e. each space or tab character
seems to be considered a 'word'.

I haven't seen any ruby-mode-specific commands to overcome these
problems, but then I really don't know that much about Eclipse...


Thanks,
Ken

I like "rich man's war" because to me it sums up the Civil War. It
was then that small Southern farmers and non-slave holders went off to
fight the Yankees (and die) to protect the rich man's slave property.
They had to go, because the rich man (small in numbers) had to stay
home a supervise his slaves. He could not risk his precious ass,
er, I mean life.

Two branches of my family were fairly prosperous before that war.
After it, they were very poor for at least two generations. Down to
my grandparents.

I've been a big fan of this phrase for a long time.
