Hi,
Apple Developer newbie here. Couple quick questions about Apple Xcode (currently running Version 10.1 (10B61), the latest version it seems I can install under Version 10.13.6 “High Sierra,” the last version of Apple macOS that my computer apparently supports):
0. How do you toggle between “Insert” and “Overwrite” mode in the Apple Xcode source editor; know how to do this in Microsoft Visual Studio Code but can’t find any documentation on how to do this in Xcode; and
How do you pipe selected text to an external filter; for example in vi you can type
!}f
to pipe everything from the current cursor to the end of the paragraph through an external program, e. g., “f” in the example above (in my case, a simple C filter that reformats and/or reflows text, whether into a canonical source format or to reflow text into 80-column paragraphs), replacing the original text with the output of that filter?

Hi,
Holding down any alphanumeric key in Apple Xcode doesn’t autorepeat, unlike in all other macOS applications; how do I turn keyboard autorepeat back on for alphanumeric keys in Apple Xcode? I am running Apple Xcode Version 10.1 (10B61) [the highest-numbered, most-recent version of Xcode compatible with Apple macOS Version 10.13.6 “High Sierra”].

Hi,
How do you pipe selected text in Apple Xcode out to an external program, replacing it with the output from that program? For example, in MacVim, you can type
!}command
to pipe the rest of the current paragraph to command, replacing the original text with the output of that command, which is hella useful if you’ve written a lot of filters for tasks like automatic text reflowing or automatic source code reformatting. How do you do this in Apple Xcode?

Hi, all,
How do you convert selected text to all-uppercase (or to all-lowercase) in Xcode? I am running Xcode Version 10.1 (10B61). (I can do it in vi, but I can’t use vi on my MacBook Pro because my caps lock key is broken, making it too painful to use vi without being able to swap the control and caps lock keys.)
