~~appending with a while cursor at EOL should behave as A~~ While traversing words in a line with w, if line-ending crlf, selecting the last word with w causes the selection to include EOL. While line-ending lf doesn't cause that issue.

while cursor at EOL, appending with a moves the cursor to the beginning of the next line.
recovering is a bit frustrating. I suggest while cursor is at EOL, appending wiht a should behave as appending to the end of line A.

This is intentional behavior borrowed from Kakoune for the sake of consistency over special-casing EOL.

Hi @kirawi Thanks for your replay,
The issue seems to be with line ending, if line-ending is set to crlf using w to get the last word in line would cause the selection of the line ending character.
If line-ending is set to lf, selecting the last word in line with a moving w doesn't cause the issue and appending seems to append to the end of the word normally rather the beginning of the new line. Not sure if that's a bug or by decision, but it seems to be affecting windows since the crlf. I noticed the issue isn't present on my fedora.
However, setting line-ending to lf on Windows would generate multiple diffs sadly.

the behaviour for w is indeed a bug (the classic using chars instead of graphemes) but the behaviour of a is very much intentional

Would you like me to edit the title and reference in a new issue?

[the-mikedavis]

Yep that sounds good to me 👍

Does #8111 fix the w behaviour bug?

[pascalkuthe]

no that PR is about commands like f and t. w is a completely unrelated code that does not share the logic here (the cause of the bug is also a different one)
