If your modification mark uses the leftmost 5 characters before the spec
type, there's a sample macro that will insert these for you (I think it
was on the IBM website, but I can't find it now - I can email it).  I've
mangled it a bit so if I use Ctrl-Enter it'll insert a new line with the
mark, Ctrl-T will tag an existing line and Alt-Q will tag the line as
deleted.

Otherwise you might be able to mangle it further so you don't need the
extra clipboard.

Code macros can be a real time saver.

Cheers
