(**who snuck this in here? ;)**). It does seem to go rather well with Shift-Alt-{W,L,P} though...
I'm thinking of adding something like 'select scope' which uses the current fold level. Or did you mean () brackets for selecting e.g. an argument list for a function?
Not sure what you mean by "fold level". I meant "brackets" in the general sense ( [], {}, () ). That is, you've got text that looks like:
{ [ hello func(foo bar baz) ] bye }
and you've got your cursor on the "bar", then you hit Shift-Alt-B and get "foo bar baz" selected. For extra geek points for Geany, if you hit Shift-Alt-B again, the selection would expand to get "func" and "hello" also (including the parentheses) -- and tap it again to get the "bye" (and square brackets) in there too.
