No doubt there are special LPEX keywords... but why reinvent the wheel? All I'm really asking is for the Ctrl-C keyword to work when the cursor pops over the line numbers.

Alt+L is basically used to select a block of lines. You can also use
Alt+R to select a rectangle. There are other shortcuts--a great list of
RSE keyboard shortcuts is available at:

Another great list is in the wiki at:

Re: [WDSCI-L] Copy Shortcut - Alt-L & Alt-C

Kurt,

You've may have heard this before, but just in case.

Personally, I'm nearly always trying to copy entire lines. On that
premise...

Regardless of where you are on a line, do Alt-L and the entire line will

highlight, move to another line and do Alt-L again and the range of
lines will highlight. Then move the cursor to a line where you want the

highlighted lines, or line copied. Regardless of where the cursor is on

the target line, Alt-C will copy the selected text right after the
target line.

Alt-U un-highlights lines that are highlighted.

AFAIK, Alt-L and Alt-C are deliberately designed to be line oriented
operations. I occasionally click and drag, or double click, to select,
but only when I want just part of a line.
