Description
Describe the bug
When my cursor is on last char and I enter to visual mode last char isn't highlighted but still selected.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Go to last char
- Enter to visual mode
- Move cursor
- See error
Expected behavior
This isn't a big problem cause last char is still selected even if not highlighted but I'm a little perfectionist and this bug is little teasing.
