Tab Nav

Word navigation using Tab key.

Features

• Keybinding Tab: navigate to next.
• Keybinding Shift+Tab: navigate to previous.
• One at a time: a list of configurable characters to tab over one at a time.
• Blacklist and whitelist mode: control whether to enable or disable Tab Nav based on current language.
• Command "Toggle Current Language": toggle current language in languages.
• Command "Toggle Enabled": toggle enabled/disabled as quick escape hatch.

Rationale

Tab key is historically used to insert \t character in order to align text. However, with the advent of code formatters, manually formatting with Tab is no longer necessary.

This extension provides a way to navigate between words more efficiently using Tab and Shift+Tab, instead of the default Ctrl+Right and Ctrl+Left.
