CodeMirror is a JavaScript component, used to provide a code editor in a
web browser. It has features like syntax highlighting, auto indentation,
big document handling, customizable key bindings including Vi and Emacs
modes.

selection
Ctrl + D                Delete line under the cursor
Ctrl + Z                Undo last change

Right arrow             Move the cursor one character right, going to the next line when hitting
the end of line
