     Thanks! Works great. The only slightly annoying thing I'm running
     into is if say I copy or cut text from somewhere else and want to
     paste it indented as you mentioned above, I have to make sure I have
     enough space to fit the pasted in text. In other words in column mode
     it doesn't automatically force down my signature and the paste will
     run right over it. Is there a way I could force it to 'push' down what
     is below where I am pasting?

      Wow, is this what all the editor discussion was about over the
      past few days? Is the anti-bat editor clan against having this
      feature? I don't get. I think it's great.
