Description

Description of the problem or steps to reproduce

Specifications

When i read code with micro, i use left/right arrow key to navigate, and because key repeat is frequent, its very easy to miss the start/end of line, i know i can quickly jump to line start/end, but what i really need is to read while navigating left/right as the thing vim does not switch line automatically, i would like to know if there is a way,like some kind of option or lua script to do this. thanks

Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point. Start by checking micro's existing left/right navigation behavior and Lua scripting or option documentation. Done means establishing whether an existing setting or script prevents crossing the start or end of a line, or defining the required behavior if no such mechanism exists.
