Description
One of the most common usage patterns I have when working with LLMs is marking a piece of code (e.g. a function, or a jupyter lab cell, or a specific few lines), and asking the LLm to modify it in some way.
I would love to have the functionality which exists in VScode and in gptel in which I can query the LLM with the current region and a prompt, and the suggested code then gets applied tentatively, with a possible (e)diff, and asking for confirmation.
I find this works great for small edits, and does not require that I necessarily add the entire file as context.
