"Lorem Ispum" is real Latin, it's just jumbled up. The words are real and some parts make sense in very small chunks, but it's so garbled that it makes no sense as a whole. Interestingly, It has been in use since the 1500s. The source of the text comes from Cicero's "De Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (the extremes of good and evil), which begins: "Neque porro quisquam est qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit..." which roughly means 'There is no one who wants pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it. Thanks for the video.. I learned a few tricks and I'll start using them.
I thought I knew most of them but Alt-Shift Right Arrow blew my mind. Now I can expand if statements, without having to find the end and beginning bracket
ALT + LEFT/RIGHT ARROW - this one is also great! Basically it's a history of your cursor positions across ALL FILES so you can quickly go back to exact places you were before with ALT + LEFT
I like, how you don't discard mouse completely, but advise to use it wisely, unlike some purists, who think mouse is completely useless. In some cases using mouse is actually faster than control clicking through several words. Also a little tip: you can grab your selected text with a mouse, and drag it into a different spot in the document, which is the equivalent of cutting and pasting without using the clipboard.
Really been enjoying your videos Scott. Just discovered your content watching your current Windows 11 video. Your videos are always relevant, comprehensive and clear. Outstanding job.
Thank you for the video, but I think that ALT + SHIFT + LEFT/RIGHT and not CTRL + ALT + LEFT/RIGHT is used for expand/shrink selection (summary). Side note, it is good to disable graphic hotkeys on most Intel graphic Windows machines so that you do not accidentally rotate screen by pressing CTRL + ALT + LEFT.
I got obsessed with KB shortcuts forever ago, and then I went to a TKL to make the hand-mouse journey shorter when I had to use it. Then I went 60%, and I can't ever go back. Having everything you need literally right under your fingers is incredibly efficient. The journey to arrow keys becomes like going to the mouse. I'm really fast, but I am practically useless on any KB that isn't 60% and programmed with my version of QMK! 😂
In the last section when you review the commands, for expand selection you say Shift Alt but you write Ctrl Alt. I think it’s Shift Alt, but just so you know.
Lorem ipsum, contrary to popular belief, is not random. It is Latin. It is a poem by Marcus Tullius Cicero. A contemporary of Julius Caesar, who had served as consul, and played a key, though perhaps disingenuous, role in legitimizing the rise of the first emperor Augustus.
This series is really helpful, you should do more of this. Thanks in advance I hope one day we will be able to pay you or the technology that you are teaching us one day.
I remember when i learned multicursor concepts in text editors (with sublime text) and it just change the game for me and I use the package manager to do aligning, selecting by reg ex, increment selection, and so many more cool extensions. makes the use of excel obsolete to me.
Fun times when you're on a deadline and your mouse dies while you have no replacement! This happened to me once, I discovered how slow a mouse causes me to become. After that incident, I made a great effort to do anything without a mouse. There were few obstacles, notably accessing a context menu with some system tray notification applications.
If it's the selection expansion you're after in Visual Studio, use Shit+Alt+= for Expand Selection or Shit+Alt+] for Expand Selection To Containing Block.
"You've got one hand on the left side of the keyboard, if you've got two hands". Just in case you only had one hand and were still interested in efficiency of typing.
Hey Scott, thank you so much for the videos. Could you do one on hex editors? I only have used them once or twice to see BOMs but I don't know why would they be useful.

Instead of "Ctrl-Shift-L", I often use "Ctrl-D" in VSCode, because I want to slowly expand current selection to the next occurrence. Great video!
I've been in IT for 19.5 years and didn't know some of these shortcuts. Thanks a bunch!
Ctrl + backspace - delete word behind cursor. Awesome video. Thanks Scott
interesting, i just did ctrl+shift+leftarrow, backspace
I thought I knew most of them but Alt-Shift Right Arrow blew my mind. Now I can expand if statements, without having to find the end and beginning bracket
ALT + LEFT/RIGHT ARROW - this one is also great! Basically it's a history of your cursor positions across ALL FILES so you can quickly go back to exact places you were before with ALT + LEFT
Holy code Scottman!
This is possibly your most basic, yet most important video to date :D
They should teach this in elementary school.
Thank you!
Another great video. I was a Senior Architect 7 years into my Dev career when I learned Shift + Ctrl + ⬅️.

I know about triple-click for a while. But it's the first time I see someone else talk about this feature. Thanks for the fourth, Scott!
I overrode CTRL-D to "delete current line" as in Eclipse. Very useful when programming.
Hey Scott - minor thing: in your summary @ 17:56 you type CTRL ALT -> for expand selection, when you meant (and said out loud) SHIFT ALT ->
CTRL + ENTER is another favorite of mine. Inserts and jumps to a new line below selected line.
CTRL D to select the word where the cursor is located. Then F3 to find the next instance of that word.
you can achieve the same result by redoing Ctrl + D
I love the uniqueness and the quality material you put on your channel.
Thank you so much.
Thanks Scott. Very useful even if you are not a beginner developer.

What you are doing is very needed. Thank you. Also you probably should have left the Latin alone.😀
Hi Scott, Always great to listen to you.
Guess one typo in your video at the end when summarising at 18:09. "CTRL ALT ->" instead of "SHIFT ALT ->"
Thank you so much for this video, i thought I knew a few cool shortcuts and but you have blown my mind and now you have shown me some new ones. Thanks

Loved all the new shortcuts I didn't know / use often enough. Great content, keep it up!
There is a typo @18:02. I think it is "SHIFT ALT --> " for expanding sexlection. line number 13
Thus is really awesome. Could we have a specific session in visual studio editing
Woah, I learned something new today, many of these I had no idea about, love the move line and copy line hotkeys you showed near the end.
In the last section when you review the commands, for expand selection you say Shift Alt but you write Ctrl Alt. I think it’s Shift Alt, but just so you know.
This is so good Scot! I have never heard about most of those shortcuts before. Thanks! 😃👍
I know some of the shortcut, but there are many that I just happen to know in the video. Well done.
Lorem ipsum, contrary to popular belief, is not random. It is Latin. It is a poem by Marcus Tullius Cicero. A contemporary of Julius Caesar, who had served as consul, and played a key, though perhaps disingenuous, role in legitimizing the rise of the first emperor Augustus.
Scott is the hero. Super helpful video.

Thanks in advance I hope one day we will be able to pay you or the technology that you are teaching us one day.
The expand collection one was really cool 😯
I'd be very interested in getting more on vs code tips.
Hi Scott, Can you cover video for hotkeys for mac? if its not possible then sheet of hotkeys should do the job as well.
7:35 Where do you buy a Microsoft Natural Ergo Keyboard 4000 in 2021? 🤔
Thank you, these keyboard skills are amazing
Keep this series going
Amazing! A lot of neat tricks I didn't know of!
I remember when i learned multicursor concepts in text editors (with sublime text) and it just change the game for me and I use the package manager to do aligning, selecting by reg ex, increment selection, and so many more cool extensions. makes the use of excel obsolete to me.
Woah! Ctrl + Shift + L was something I didn’t know about!
Very useful! Always more to learn! Love the series!
11:25 I am pretty experienced at this type of stuff, but that is pretty wild. Kind of like a targeted "rename" or "refactor". Nice!
wow, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Wow! Great Vid. So helpful. You have saved me so much time! Thank you.
Awesome, some I did know, although multiline quick change is way amazing. Also Carnac! nice adittion
What's that software you mentioned at @2:33? Karnak? Can't seem to find the right way to spell it.
0:56 Ok, now I'm waiting for a Vim video! 😄
Thanks. Very helpful indeed.
Hmmm.... strange, many of the shortcuts shown do not work neither VS nor VS Code on my pc, which is interesting as I use the default configuration

After that incident, I made a great effort to do anything without a mouse. There were few obstacles, notably accessing a context menu with some system tray notification applications.
Also, yes, I do have some backup input devices...
Great video! Is it bad that I stil use ctrl-ins, shift-ins and shift-del for cut & paste?
ALT+SHIFT+UP/DOWN: Copy current line(s) up or down
Could you make a video on path variables and adding things to path?
Sure
@@shanselman wow thank you so much!
Thank you. You are awesome.
Very detailed video. Thanks a lot guy!
Is there a way in VS code to create the multiple cursors without using the mouse?
Some of the shortcuts unfortunately don't work in Visual Studio, would be cool to have them all also in VS not just in code. Great video :)
If it's the selection expansion you're after in Visual Studio, use Shit+Alt+= for Expand Selection or Shit+Alt+] for Expand Selection To Containing Block.
Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍 great
"You've got one hand on the left side of the keyboard, if you've got two hands". Just in case you only had one hand and were still interested in efficiency of typing.
Is Carnac available for mac user in this USA?
AMAZING
Hey Scott, thank you so much for the videos. Could you do one on hex editors? I only have used them once or twice to see BOMs but I don't know why would they be useful.

Ian Leff Thank you
Great stuff
Thank you!
Summary start: 14:53
I think your next video on Internationalization of the code, like in general with all programming languages.
It takes some time to get your muscle memory used to new shortcuts
10:41 What sorcery is this? 😆
I knew vim could do this, but I could not find it in vscode.
I knew the ones with Alt existed, just not what the hotkeys were.
If I click the menu Selection -> Select all occurrences it works, but if I Ctrl + Shift + L it deletes a line. :(
"and they will go up here . . and they will press this bit . . "
Yep. Nothing worse than waiting for a menu-using supervisor copy and paste.
fantastic
Anyone knows what theme is used in the video?
That's "Yonce" from Mina Markham
does anyone know what theme is he using??
Yonce in Code
Thanks fella!
Which theme are you using in VSCode ?
That's "Yonce" from Mina Markham
@@shanselman Thanks. I'll try it.
I was also today days old when I learned Shift + Alt 😮😮.
I wish you did this for Mac too
Just replace any control with command or alt. The rest is the same.
Speaking my language! Avoid the mouse at all costs is my motto.
Learn vi bindings. Done!
I pretended to be a programmer until this.
And I'm sitting here wishing half these worked in MATLAB :'(
Scott, do a video on braiding hair. I really want to see you do it
When I was in school VS Code didn't even exist ;)
OMG, what! We are talking keyboard efficiency and you are using “Ctrl-p >”!! Just us F1 my good man. lol
Exactly! :-) CTRL+SHIFT+P works too
Your microphone is too high quality. Gum smacks are loud
Thanks for shift+ctrl+\ though!
