# SelectQuotedText
Simple Notepad++ plug-in that selects the text in quotes. It uses the Scintilla
lexers Notepad++ is based on to determine what "quoted text" is. If no quoted
text is found, the current word is selected.
## How to install
Download the lastest version from https://github.com/ffes/selectquotedtext/releases
and copy `SelectQuotedText.dll` in the `plugins/SelectQuotedText` directory.
Then (re)start Notepad++.
## How to use
When the cursor is in a quoted text, press `Alt+'` to select that text.
You can adjust the hotkey in `Settings`, `Shortcut Mapper`, `Plugin commands`.
## Known issues
- In C and C++ the string `L"Text"` is not selected properly.
- In Python a text between triple quotes is not selected properly.
- In HTML a URL in quotes is recognized as URL (it is underlined and clickable)
by the lexer and therefore the plug-in will just select the current word.
