CamelHumps option name quest.
Those who use CamelPlugin, help needed. We've finally implemented an option
and the only thing left is adequate option checkbox name. Any ideas?

nice ;)
name is gonna be difficult, but there is probably some creative person hanging around here..my try:
- smart select
- intelli' select
- sequence (order) select (ahm..dunno)
- grow select
- hungry select
and, yeah, camel select seems to be the best choice, maybe Timur (if I have his name right) is nice to give up that name cause maybe there's no need for camel plugin anymore.

the Hopping caret
the HumHopping caret
the Egyptian caret
the Camel caret

Poor Maxim, noone took him seriously :P

I did.
Don't you think that
Hopping Caret
conveys the idea of the caret jumping from "hump" to hump ?

Maxim,
Camel is fine for me but I am damaged good since I am so used to it ;)
Make sure you leave an action to turn it on/off like the CamelPlugin. It is important when recording macro.
By default I turn on the camel mode in editing but most likely I will turn it off when recording a macro which involves manipulating words.
Question: will it work in text fields too or just the editor?

More generally, it would be good if all appropriate features could be
available outside of the editor. Ok, I'm adding it now as I compose this
email. Be right back... Done, and here is the link:

I think "Camel Select" (or something similar) is perfect. It perfectly describes how it works, and once you hear it once, it will make perfect sense forever. Of course, it might take a little description, but I think for a feature like this, any (reasonable) name would require some sort of explanation.

misunderstood.

I agree. something like 'Camel-Select Word' is good.
No since its all directed by Swing there.

Please say you're still planning to support it there... :-S

As for me Bas's first two names are the most informative.
Let me explain why. I didn't know what does CamelPlugin do before reading this topic. But after reading Bas's post I finally guessed right that this option deals with caseDelimitedWords :)
So I'd suggest 'Subword caret moving & selection'

I'm sure this is too pedantic, but I think that the status quo is what is wrongly named and the the camel-breaks are really word breaks. Existing navigation ("select next word", "delete to word end", etc.) really should talk about tokens, not words ("select next token", "delete to token end", etc.) and "word" should be used as the camel unit of navigation.
By this logic, a checkbox distinguishing camel-word navigation from token navigation might be "navigate words and tokens" or reverse the boolean with "tokens are words". Okay, I'm not doing any better with the label in this scheme either... :(
+1 for Subword Select. Describes it nicely.

I've never seen this word. Neither has my Spell Checker :)

You have now! According to my language parser - logically, it means a

resides under water (hence the marine).
Although Im fairly sure you knew that already ;) In any case - who said
terminology has to exist in a dictionary!

difference between 'subword' and 'substring'.
- Is "café-au-lait" 1 word made out of 3 subwords?
Alain
I doubt my spell checker would be too happy with it either. Damn OpenOffice. ;)
I mentally associated "subword" with "subdirectory". A subdirectory is a
directory within a directory, so a subword...

It is a word I made up. Google has seen it 29,000 times, so I'm not really
original. But it's meaning is relatively understandable. Google only returns
11,800 hits on the word "camel hump", so "subword" is also more popular:-)
You could write as "sub-word" and you spell checker would not complain
either.
Bas
Bas,

Funny you're mentionning Google, because I used it, an hour ago, before
posting my original comment about 'subword'.
(btw, I only got 18.000 results. You must know people who know people
who know 'subword'.)
The results it gave me didn't help, and rather confirmed my opinion :
subword == substring
in most definitions.
As I said in a reply to Vilya :

Are we using the same Google? I just ran a few quick searches,
Google on :
camel hump 20.300
subword 18.000
hopping 613.000
hop 3.570.000

-1.
For me, "subword" has a slight pejorative taste, as in "subculture" or "subhuman". I like "camel-select" a lot better.

Jens
Plus, the term subword does not clearly define how the "subwords" are selected. I think the camel term more clearly describes how it works, using capital letters as delimiters so to speak.

Well, the results with the query "camel hump" aren't very helpful either...
But I do like the "camel" suggestion, I just thought I'd offer some
alternatives. I find "camel hump" a bit funny actually, it makes me think a
little bit about camel's humping each other;-)

Agreed.
Hmm, very strange, it seems we are not. When I type www.google.com I
automatically get redirected to www.google.nl (for my country the
Netherlands), maybe that explains the difference.
I did them too:

Funny.

What do you think of this one?
- Treat uppercase letters as delimiters (moving & selection)
