wrap-with-anything

Wrap text selections instead of replacing them when certain characters are typed.

The Atom builtin package bracket-matcher provides a feature where if you have text selected and type any kind of opening bracket or quote, the selection is wrapped instead of being replaced.

This package (wrap-with-anything) extends this feature to allow an arbitrary list of characters which will trigger this wrapping behaviour. The default list is *, ~, /, _, and space.

Char	Reason
*	Mardown emphasis (single) and strong emphasis (double)
_	Mardown emphasis (single) and strong emphasis (double)
~	Mardown strikethrough (when double)
/	Used for italics in various markups. Also delimits regular expressions in many languages
(space)	Useful for padding things out

You can customise this list in the settings.

Wrap with carriage return

Keep the selection

Hallo. Here is some kind of bug report:

Steps to reproduce:

1. Select some word
2. Press ". The word be wrapped with ". Now, press Ctrl-Z to undo this wrapping. You will see that the word is still selected.
3. Repeat step-2 with plugin installed and use _ instead of " for wrapping. You will see that after you do the "undo", selection will disappear.

where to customize?

This may be self evident, but I can't find it.
I can see the readme that says.

You can customise this list in the settings.

But I do not see any settings. Other than the readme.

Thanks!

Option to disable wrapping of multi-line selections

Hello.

I often want to replace newline (and indentation) with a space, so collapse them into one line, but I'm just getting wrapping with spaces, which I use sometimes for simple structures like {a: 42}.

So, I think, I don't need for wrapping multi-lines in any time. And we can add an option for this. Maybe even enabled by default.

Option to unwrap

It would be nice to have an option to unwrap as well as wrap.

• Before: _text_
• After: text
