In [[user interface engineering]], a '''selection''' is a list of items on which user operations will take place. The user typically adds items to the list manually, although the computer may create a selection automatically. This simultaneous selection of a group of items is called a ''multiple selection''.
* Text selection is strongly associated with the [[cut, copy and paste]] operations.

▲[[Simultaneous editing]] is a technique in [[End-user development]] research that allows the user to manipulate all the selected items at once through [[direct manipulation]]. The [[Lapis (text editor)|Lapis]] text editor and the ''multi edit''<ref>[http://blogs.gnome.org/jessevdk/2009/11/15/new-gedit-plugin-multi-edit/ New gedit plugin: multi edit]</ref> plugin for [[gedit]] are examples of this technique. The term ''simultaneous editing'' is also used to describe [[collaborative real-time editor]]s.
