multiple-cursors.el
An experiment in multiple cursors for emacs. Still very much in beta.
The basic concept works, but there are definitely some kinks to work out.
This extension is dependent on the mark-multiple library.

Usage
I've set up my key-bindings like so:
;; Experimental multiple-cursors
(global-set-key (kbd "C-S-c C-S-c") 'mc/add-multiple-cursors-to-region-lines)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-S-c C-e") 'mc/edit-ends-of-lines)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-S-c C-a") 'mc/edit-beginnings-of-lines)
To get out of multiple-cursors-mode, press C-g.
You can also switch to multiple-cursors-mode by pressing C-g when in mark-multiple-mode. This is symmetrical to how pressing C-g with an active region deactivates it. Press C-g again to remove extra cursors.
Contribute
There's plenty wrong with this implementation still. I'm actively trying things out, and also considering combining it with mark-multiple.el to get a more comprehensive tool.
Still, if you've got something to contribute, please do not hesitate to open an issue, and we can take a look together before you dive into the elisp. :-)
