I am unable to use the left and right arrow in the level name field to go back. I wanted to edit a level name without deleting the entire name and retyping it.
I agree that this should be possible.
This is issue #357 (https://github.com/SimonN/LixD/issues/357) on github.
Ah thanks. That GitHub issue is 6 years old so it's probably still a good idea that I bumped it.
This seems like a very important feature. Even command-line terminals generally allow this.
Yeah, all of the following are long-missing features. Implementing all of these is considerable work. But it will be better to just start implementing some of them than having none at all.
Cursor-left to move leftward by one character.
Cursor-right to move rightward by one character.
Home to jump to the beginning.
End to jump to the end.
Ctrl+Left to move leftward to the next beginning of a word.
Ctrl+Right to move rightward to the next end of a word.
Click into the text to make the cursor jump there.
Add support for text selections in the first place.
Click and drag across text to mark the dragged-across section.
Hold shift and move the cursor to mark the moved-across section.

The jumping to positions should be simple to do all of, once one of them is done. Highlighting etc is a bit trickier and more forgivable to not have.
