The fastest way to do this in Helix would be `t<Enter>d`.

edit: Paragraph and other object movement/selection is done by the `[`, `]` menu. `]p` for the next paragraph. Surrounds are done by the `m` menu.

Thanks, that's helpful.

I get it - so 't' is 'to' and enter is new line. Makes sense.

The menu under `[` looks good, but very code-focused and lacking sentences.

EDIT: I am finding it a bit weird to have 'go to's as different to movements. There isn't a distinction in vim, which is useful. I'm learning that 'ge' will take me to the end of file, but I can't do 'ged' to delete to there.

You can do vged. Currently ge takes you to the last line, but there is a change planned to take you to the absolute end.
