918 PointsUse ctrl + D to duplicate your selection.
In the video, Nick asks you to use ctrl + C when using Windows, to copy your selection and paste it multiple times. You can also use ctrl + D to duplicate your selection. Holding ctrl, press D and the duplicated selection will be placed directly under your original selection. While holding ctrl, press D as many times as you need without needing the mouse or directional/cursor movement keys.
HINT: in this case, each line with script requiring duplication will need to be highlighted in it's entirety in order to retain it's form when being duplicated. (run on sentence, rewrite or explain it more clearly to receive a virtual high five)
Shortcuts are awesome!
