[Github-comments] [geany] Vertically selecting large numbers of lines (#819)

[philip r brenan]

Holding <b>alt+shift</b> to start a vertical selection and then holding <b>page-down</b> results in rapidly rising CPU usage and eventual black-out as <b>Geany</b> is starved of CPU

Please consider making it possible to vertically select a large ranges of lines, for example: the whole file or a large enclosing class in a way that does not trigger this problem

<b>Thanks!</b>
