There was a problem hiding this comment.
Would this work with multiple empty lines between 2 meaningful lines?
[and same comment for the copy action]

When the selection is empty, pressing Ctrl-C/Ctrl-X would copy text of zero length, which seems make no sense, and probably cause mistakes (e.g. forgot copy a zero-length text). Therefore, I modified the behavior to copy the current line when there is no selection, which supported by some other editors.
