To perform multi-line editing/selecting on Linux Mint using VSCode, you can follow these steps:

1. Open VSCode on your Linux Mint system.
2. Open the file or document that you want to edit.
3. Place your cursor or click on the location of the first line that you want to select or edit.
4. To select multiple lines, hold down the Shift key and use the arrow keys (up or down) to select the lines you want to edit. You can also use the mouse to drag a selection.
5. Once you have selected the lines you want to edit, start typing to edit all selected lines at once. You can also use the arrow keys to move the cursor to the desired location in all selected lines and add or remove text as needed.
6. Press the Esc key to exit multi-line editing mode.

Alternatively, you can also use the Edit menu or keyboard shortcuts to perform multi-line editing. For example, you can use the Alt key to select a column of text, or use the Ctrl key with the arrows to select multiple words or lines. Check the VSCode documentation for more information on multi-line editing features.
