<p><a href="https://github.com/ryan1729" class="user-mention">@Ryan1729</a> good on you for trying.</p>
<p>One thought on why it does nothing is that something has to do the selection, are you sure Scintilla has a default binding for <code>ctrl+click</code> that does multiple selection?  If not you need to add it, or add it to Geany in place of the code you deleted.</p>

<p>Per comments above I expected some parts not to play nicely with multiple selections</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I would expect <em>everything</em> to simply ignore multiple selections, and just read the main selection and operate on that.  And thats where the "significant change" part above comes in.</p>
<p>The <code>enable-multiselection</code> branch is not in the Geany repository, or any PR (AFAICT) so it a private one at best in that persons github repository.</p>
<p>PS removed the backticks around your link so it would work, markup is ignored inside backticks.</p>
