IntelliJ Surround My Text!

## How it work? This extension allows you to wrap/surround a selected text in a editable content (like form fields) with a character of your choice. This is particularly useful when needing to quote a word with the "quotation marks" key of your keyboard, but also surrounded with parenthesis. ℹ️ Example, I have made a text selection for the word "dolor", next I push the left parenthesis key: BEFORE: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet. AFTER: Lorem ipsum (dolor) sit amet. This extension allow more than the simple & double quotes, below the default configuration: ### Simple wrap (left character is the same of right): " (double quotation mark) " ¨ (diaeresis (umlaut)) ¨ ' (apostrophe) ' ¸ (cedilla) ¸ ` (back-tick or grave accent) ` ´ (acute accent) ´ · (middle dot) · . (dot or full stop) . * (asterisk) * º (masculine ordinal indicator) º ª (feminine ordinal Indicator) ª ° (degree symbol) ° % (percent sign) % = (equal sign) = + (plus sign) + ! (exclamation mark) ! | (vertical bar) | ¦ (broken bar) ¦ ~ (tilde) ~ ¯ (macron) ¯ _ (low line) _ - (hyphen-minus) - : (colon) : ¤ (currency sign) ¤ § (section sign) § ### Simple wrap (left character is different of right): < (less-than sign, greater-than sign) > ˂ (modifier letter left arrowhead, modifier letter right arrowhead) ˃ « (left-pointing double angle quotation mark, right-pointing double angle quotation mark) » “ (left double quotation mark, right double quotation mark) ” ʿ (modifier letter left half ring, modifier letter right half ring) ʾ ( (left parenthesis, right parenthesis) ) [ (left square bracket, right square bracket) ] { (left curly bracket, right curly bracket) } ... and more!
