A combination of C and O or CC and OO with equal size blocks may be easy on a 
TN3270 client with support for block C&P, but is there a TN3270 client that 
will replicate the source if it is smaller than the target? I quite commonly 
mark a single lline with C and multiple lines with oo, or mark a short block 
with cc and a long block with oo.

I use it all the time to put change markers on new lines. Of course with a
decent TN3270 program you can probably just as easily copy & paste them in
at that level.
