3. To select multiple instances one by one

To select the next instance one by one, use Cmd + D.

  • When your selection is a string, highlight the string and press Cmd + D.
  • When your selection is a word, you can just put the cursor at the word and press Cmd + D without having to highlight the entire word first.
