That sounds preferable and easy to remember to me (delete line: Ctrl-K, cut line: Shift-Ctrl-K, go to line: Ctrl-L).
Ok, I'll do it tomorrow if nobody complains ;-).
I've been thinking it might be better to swap the default ctrl-k actions:
- Delete Line is more destructive than Cut Line, so having to press
shift as well makes it harder to do by accident - occasionally I don't hold down the shift key enough when doing the ctrl-shift keycombos. 2. Ctrl-k for 'K'ut line seems easier to remember.
Anyone else agree?
Most often, I use Ctrl-K to gobble up some lines that I don't need. One case where this shows up is: I cut or copy something to the clipboard, navigate to where I want it, but first hit Ctrl-K or Enter a few times to tidy up a bit before hitting Ctrl-V to paste. If Ctrl-K was was cutting, I'd lose my previous selection.
