@aeschli and @bpasero, long time no talk! Hope you are all doing well. I'm working on updating this extension to address some user requests, including this one. Is there a way to address this issue with the current extension API? I don't know how to listen for a whitespace character to turn off the second cursor. I know that the Vim extension can listen for certain keyboard input to change modes, but I heard from Ben a while ago that this wasn't an ideal approach for my extension. Would love your 2 cents on how to address this. Thanks!

Hi @brad! Great to hear from you!
If I understand right, you want to enter template mode, with one or more cursor positions. Check out the TextEditor.insertSnippet API.
