Description Pieter Smith

Build Identifier: 

The edit commands Copy&Append, Cut&Append and Paste&Copy (See UltraEdit32) or equivalents are not implemented in Eclipse.  These edit functions allow much more productive workflows on a number of editing tasks.  Please add these or equivalents. E.g.:

* Copy&Append (Ctrl+Shift+C): copies data from the document to the clipboard, appending it to any existing data in the clipboard
* Cut&Append (Ctrl+Shift+X): deletes data from the document and moves it to the clipboard, appending it to any existing data in the clipboard
* Paste&Copy (Ctrl+Shift+V): pastes the clipboard text to the selection (replacing it) and copies the selected text to the clipboard




Reproducible: Always

Doesn't sound specific to CDT.

You're probably right.  I'm a little new to the Eclipse community, so please point me in the right direction if I got it wrong.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
