Try ultraedit, it has a column mode that can handle this sort of thing.

Subject: Re: [U2] Using ED

I Use EditPlus, but I have found one major flaw that ED
can do without a problem.

If you want to add say, 4 spaces to the beginning a block
  of lines (to indent a block), you can't do that. whereas
  in ED, you would just set < & >, and r//    /b  (or use a #)

Anyone found a way to do this in EditPlus?
