Sign text editor improvements

The text editor for signs needs some more love:

  1. Home/End should go to the beginning end of the current line, not the beginning/end of the entire text
  2. Selection and copy/paste should be supported

This has mildly annoyed me for awhile but the kicker was today when I just finished entering a long paragraph of additional text on a sign, exited out, and then realized I had chiseled the block the sign was attached to incorrectly. Now I have to break the sign and type the whole spiel over again. And I can’t copy/paste, so there’s no good way for me to make sure I enter it exactly the same way the second time.

Screenshot the original sign and then just use it as direct reference…

It may be laborious, but it’s that one way you can make sure you enter it exactly the same way the second time.


And yes, copy / paste would be awesome!

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! Up/down goes left/right. Makes it kinda hard to edit multi-line texts

arrow character is in unicode.
game not support unicode now.

i just use <- or <= to show left and right arrow
and use
||
V
or Rotated =>
to show up and down arrow

Arrow keys as in being able to move the cursor with arrow keys I think.
