Re: Next release

I don't believe that the copy-paste in PCOMM is exactly pure Windows but
rather augmented by PCOM to give the rectangular (non-stream) copy-paste
behaviour.

In LPEX if you use ALT+R to mark then ALT+C to copy does that not do what
you wish?

I would love to be able to do block oriented copy/paste.

For example:
d Field1          s                 1a
d Field2          s                 3p  0
d Field..n         s                 7p  2

I'd like to be able to paste the block of field names like this:
         Field1
         Field2
         Field..n

And then add to the end of each line - which may also be a block
copy/paste.  Easy in SEU with Windows copy/paste.

I gather it's a base Eclipse limitation as I haven't been able to
Google-ify a solution.
