Block Mode and Edit time Macros

[Gavriel Gery]

Shalom All.

I suggest adding 2 functions to the internal editor.
1. Block Edit mode.
2. Edit time Macros.

Those who are familiar with the famous TextPad editor know how useful Block mode can be. We all know quite well what can be achieved by macros.

When I edit macros I switch from the internal editor to TextPad as external editor and back again, frequently.

In general it is a good idea to steal functionality from TextPad. Of course when suggesting "steal" I mean in a non criminal fashion. The Block Edit mode itself, isn't an original idea in TextPad. It could be found in several veteran editors. For example the IBM Personal Editor from the good old long forgotten DOS times. Macros are what this software is about. It's time the cobblers' children start wearing shoes.
