iPad text editing with keyboard selection

Cydia tweak based on a this demo video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGQTaH...

All credit for the idea goes to Daniel Hooper for the idea, implementation and coding by myself (Kyle Howells).

This will hopefully be in Cydia soon.

Watch where his fingers are when he does the text selection. In standard selection you are required to place your finger over the text, wait for the magnification window, and carefully place your cursor where you want it.  With this tweak you can move the cursor and select text simply by dragging your finger across the keyboard.

Wow. You had me at hello

I don't get what the improvement is and what's wrong with apple's text selection?

[Andrey Neyman]

Your tweak is awesome.

Could you add threshold move cursor movement? When I write fast, cursor moves randomly.

Geniously.

insalled this twek, and its relly cool. one suggestion, can you make the "copy, cut, paste,..." menu to automatically pop out once finish selecting required words. other improvement is to make t work with all apps.. anyway, great start as the ideas just pops out few days ag. U're really cool
