Heh, oops. What I'm talking about is what you get when you
right-click in a composition window, and hit "Block Type".

Ok, again I haven't tried any of these but I assume the Blocks
selection is a radio button (exactly one of them always selected).
What that typically means is:
Persistent blocks: Cursor is free to move around regardless of the
block selection (which is likely something that you're not used to,
esp. if you've never heard of it ;). You can type and whatever, and
the block stays selected and unchanging.
Overwrite blocks I would assume are the same as Windows "typical"
behaviour.
Now for pasting different types, haven't tried that either, but I
assume again that it has to do with the stuff I mentioned in the
previous message; that if you mark something in column mode, copy it
to the clipboard, and then change the block type, this determines what
will happen when you go to paste it. Does The Bat! change into the
old mode, or does it paste without asking, or ... ???
-tom!
