I'm using IntelliJ 14.1.1 with the Cursive Clojure plugin.
Is there a way to configure IntelliJ to not treat hyphens (-) as a word separator when double-clicking?
The use case is that I want to select a hyphen separated symbol (e.g. foo-bar). I double click on foo and only foo is selected. I want all of foo-bar to be selected.
Unfortunately there isn't at the moment. There's an issue in the tracker for this (#55), I'll try to implement this soon.

When deleting words (ctrl+backspace or ctrl+delete) in IntelliJ it treats whitespace as a word until it hits a newline character. I want to treat every sequence of space/tab and newline[sequences] as one word.
Essentially this is the reverse problem of this question in IntelliJ.
Sadly i did not find any setting to do that so far.
There exists a "Hungry Backspace" action.
Yet there exists no "Hungry Delete" out of the box.
And it does not work for non-whitespace words.
I know how to convert indent for a single file. I go to edit -> convert indent -> space/tab.
But I want to do this for all files under a directory.
I try click on a directory and then go to edit -> convert indent, but the options are grayed out.
You can use the shortcut Ctrl+ALT+L (Windows/Linux) or ⌥⌘+L (MAC OS X) and select the Rearrange entries option to reformat the code in the current file or reformat a module or directory.
You can also Right-click a module, file, or directory from the context menu and select Reformat Code and also select the Rearrange entries option.
This will convert the indents for all files/directories selected:
This works on most of the Jetbrains IDES (iDea, PyCharm, WebStorm, RubyMine, and so on.)
It seems there is no such dedicated option in IntelliJ, but you could just work around it using a "low-level" Replace All action.
Open the Edit → Find → Replace in Files... dialog
In case you want to convert spaces to tabs, you should
Enter in the Find field (i.e. four spaces (or whatever number of spaces the project is currently indented with))
Press the Regex search modifier (Alt + X)
Enter \t in the Replace field
NB: In case you have valid strings with 4+ spaces in them, they will get replaced too. In most use cases, however, this is not happening.
In case you want to convert tabs to spaces, you should do the same as above, but swap the Find and Replace field contents
NB: Again, if you have valid strings with tabs in them, they will get replaced too. I haven't had this use case, because I've only needed to convert in the opposite direction.
You will probably also want to set a File mask in order not to replace spaces in code-irrelevant files
The way we can use Cmd + Option + U to make text upper case or lower case; is there any shortcut to replace spaces with underscores with selected text in IntelliJ Idea?
Like: HELLO WORLD to HELLO_WORLD?

When my cursor is after an open quote in a SQL statement in an IntelliJ database console and I press Enter, it closes the quote on the current line and adds a concatenation symbol with an open quote on the newline.
I disabled formatting the SQL code style settings but that didn't fix it for me.
UPDATE blah SET blah2 = 'something<pressed enter>' ||
'<argh!>...';
Is there a way to disable this autoformatting?
This request was addressed in 2017.1 version, as a result, Insert string concatenation on Enter setting was added specifically for SQL:
This can be archived since IntelliJ 13. You simply need to wrap your code with
// #formatter:off
your code goes here
// #formatter:on
Since IntelliJ Idea 15-16(pardon if i'm wrong), you can also make permanent set up by Preferences > Editor > Code Style option
Hope it helps
In many text editors that are aimed at programmers, if the user has a selection that spans more than 1 line and presses the TAB key, those lines are indented by 1 TAB (or a number of spaces, depending on how the editor is configured).
However, this does not seem to be the default behavior of Notepad++. Is there a way I can do this in Notepad++, or is there a plugin that I can get to allow me to do this?
Edit: Upon additional testing, SHIFT-TAB correctly un-indents the lines as expected, but only a tab simply inserts a tab wherever the carat is. This is in version 5.4.5 Unicode
The problem was with the QuickText plugin. After removing it, indent worked as normal.
Capslock + Tab to indent multiple lines at once. Highlight the text first.
The problem with the new version of QuickText seems to be that it is set to react to the TAB key. Previously it was set to use CTRL-ENTER. If you change the key combination in the shortcut mapper then your TAB key should start working again, and QuickText should also work (with whatever new key you've assigned).
It works fine for my v. 5.4.5 of Notepad++. I just select multiple lines and press TAB.
If you want TAB to be replaced by SPACE than you need to go Settings > Preferences and select Edit Components tab. Next check Replace by spaces check box in Tab Setting section.
Update: In a newer version of Notepad++ this option is in Settings > Preferences > Language section.
If you're using QuickText and like pressing Tab for it, you can otherwise change the indentation key.
Go Settings > Shortcup Mapper > Scintilla Command. Look at the number 10.
I changed 10 to : CTRL + ALT + RIGHT and
11 to : CTRL+ ALT+ LEFT.
Now I think it's even better than the TABL / SHIFT + TAB as default.
I have Notepad++ 5.3.1 (UNICODE). I haven't done any magic and it works fine for me as described by you.
Maybe it depends on the (programming/markup/...) "Language"?
Just install the NppAutoIndent plug-in, select Plugins > NppAutoIndent > Ignore Language and then Plugins > NppAutoIndent > Smart Indent.
Notepad++ will only auto-insert subsequent indents if you manually indent the first line in a block; otherwise you can re-indent your code after the fact using TextFX > TextFX Edit > Reindent C++ code.
in Notepad++v6.1.8 (Unicode) it works after removing the QuickText plugin.
To increase indent - Press and hold TAB
To decrease indent - Press and hold TAB + SHIFT
