Binsearch Positioning Package

It introduces two commands moveLeft and moveRight allowing one to move inside a line using a binary search strategy: e.g., the first moveLeft command will position the cursor in the mid of the string starting from the beginning of the line and the current position, a following moveRight command would move the cursor half way towards its original position.

Key bindings

  • ctr-alt-left will move the custor towards the left of the line (halfway distance between the current position and the last used position on that side);
  • ctr-alt-right will move the custor towards the right of the line (halfway distance between the current position and the last used position on that side);

Issues

I am not familiar with Atom development, contributions to this package will be very welcome.
