Re: Block Copy/Paste in LPEX

Vern,
"Right-Click" can be replaced by the windows context menu key.
It's the one by the right control with the mouse cursor.

Thanks, Matt

I've got used to using the keyboard more for some things - once a region

is selected, right-click, then type L - E will put the cursor in the
command line, where I enter the fill characters.

Similarly, to see all the instances only of a selected element, I
right-click anywhere - then type L - F and voila!

Thanks again
Vern

Vern,

You are right, rectangular selection plus block fill (from command

line) is

great for commenting out code or blanking out or deleting sequence

numbers.

I use that all the time.

Its great the way you guys multiply the value of the product with your

own

creativity.

I use the rectangular selection a lot - and I really like having
drag-drop now in RDp 7.6 (I assume it's also in 8). The drag-drop

style,

of course, is for stream selections. Even better, I can drag from one
editor window to another. This is like SEU's F15 split window copying

on

steroids. Thanks for this new feature.

Another feature I use a lot is filling a selection - any selection -
with a character of string - it wraps in the selection, as I recall -

I

often use it to put a change marker in columns 1-5 of RPG code. Or to
comment a section of code.
