how to select all input text?

[realyukii]

is there a way to select all input text? I want to select all and delete but with ctrl a it move the cursor to the beginning instead of select all input text

Guess your 'delete' means deselect?
Then you can set --bind 'ctrl-a:toggle-all'.

$ seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-a:toggle-all'

In case you literally just want to delete (exclude) the result from the list.

$ seq 10 | fzf --multi --bind 'ctrl-a:toggle-all' --bind 'delete:exclude-multi'

sorry for the confusion, I think my question isn't clear enough, by delete, I mean clear the input text, after read the man page, I found cancel is what I'm looking for, so the solution in my case is:

pacman -Qq | fzf --bind ctrl-a:cancel --preview 'pacman -Qil {}' --layout=reverse --bind 'enter:execute(pacman -Qil {} | less)'

I see.
Somehow I misunderstood your input text to result list cause of ctrl-a. 😅

Please note that cancel does more than just clearing the query string.

clear-query  (clear query string)
cancel       (clear query string if not empty, abort fzf otherwise)
