Following this advice, I've configured Iterm2 to delete the word when Alt + Backspace. I would like to build a similar functionality for combinations of Alt + Shift + ← | →. With respect to those combinations, I would like to be able to select word behind or after the cursor and expand the selection further by pressing the ← | → keys.
