Configuring the Editor
To help you work more efficiently, you can:
- Change how the Editor looks and behaves. For example, you can change whether you can drag and drop text within a file. To access settings that change how the Editor looks, behaves, and handles your code, choose Config > Options..., and go to the Editor tab.
- Customize the Editor to perform actions in new ways. You can replicate all of the actions that are available in the standard Editor window by assigning the appropriate commands to a new menu, keystroke combination, mouse click combination, or button. For example, if you do not like to use the mouse when you are editing, you can assign commands to keystrokes.
Perhaps the easiest way to find out what command you want is to look in
Chapter 5, "Using the Editor", which lists the equivalent command for each GUI component. You can also look at the complete list of commands in
Chapter 7, "Editor commands".
For information about how you assign commands to menus, keybindings, mouse bindings, and buttons, see
Chapter 9, "Configuring and customizing MULTI".
Once you learn the basic method of customizing the menus, keybindings, mouse bindings, and buttons in the Editor, you can apply these methods quickly any time you think of a way you can customize the Editor to improve your efficiency.
