Description Shavais 2006-05-22 23:25:04 UTC
I don't know if this is a GTK issue or what, but in most edit boxes of most
applications that have edit boxes, ctrl+left arrow moves the cursor to the Right
one word instead of the Left. It's been that way for a long time, and continues
to be that way. Maybe this is a duplicate bug, if it is, my apologies. Oh 
I notice that the editboxes in Epiphany don't have this problem. Huh I notice it
seems to be fixed in Firefox, now, too.. so maybe it only continues to be an
issue in GEdit. Yeah, gedit 10.2.3 has the problem.

Is it in a right-to-left environment?  Like with Arabic or Hebrew text?
