Multiple cursors / highlight next instance of currently highlighted word

Question

In Sublime Text, it\'s easy to select the next instance of a word by pressing command + d and also place multiple cursors by pressing command & clicking

Answer 1

There's the Xcode-Multi-Edit-Plugin. It's still not quite like Sublime because the multiple cursors can't be used to edit beyond the selection you made when you started command-d-ing but it's close enough.

The plugin is not updated for Xcode 7.3 but this can be easily fixed by adding

to the list of similar UUIDs in DVTPlugInCompatibilityUUIDs in the plugin's Info.plist. (Found at ~/Library/Application\ Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/XcodeMultiEdit.xcplugin/Contents/Info.plist)

Another promising plug-in which currently lacks Xcode 7.3 support is Multiplex.
