I used to use the block feature in qedit off and on, it was handy,

think I could do without is R:Code's ability to copy a command to the

out continuation characters and excess spaces on the way.

BOY, I SURE WISH RBG7'S - RBEDIT COULD DO THAT. COPY, PASTE, DELETE +,+,+ ...

IF RCODE CAN DO THAT WHY NOT RBEDIT???

************************************

1) Place the cursor anywhere within a command in R:Code and press
[ctrl]-[alt]-[C].


2) Switch to the R> window and press [ctrl]-[v]



No clumsy highlighting, no editing at the R> to remove "+"s.

I guess im not seeing it. Could you explain how this would be useful in
with a r:base exsample. Maybe its something we could get from 7.0's RBE

QEDIT (which, by the way, I use every day) will manipulate blocks just like
RBEDIT and RCODE, but additionally can copy a rectangle out of the screen.


For instance, in the text below, the letters in CAPS could be copied by
QEDIT:

� � � � � � � � �this is a test � � � � � � � � �this IS A test � � � � � � � � �this IS A test � � � � � � � � �this is a test

If you then pasted the result you would see:

� � � � �IS A
� � � � �IS A


By "block" I thought he meant block copy , block delete, block edit, or
speed jump marking of spots. What is a block in q edit?

Actually, it doesn't do the "block" functions that Shane was talking
about. I
remember Q Edit. �You could define a rectangle of characters, not
necessarily
including beginning and ends of lines, and could copy, replace,
shift
left, shift
right and things like that to that rectangle. �That was sometimes a
very
nice
feature.
