1. Edita 0.05
New version with cut/paste, undo/redo:
http://palacebuilders.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/edita.htm
(Still no file save, on purpose)
This time, I've actually used the lastest version of arwen, which I
managed to save in the wrong directory...

I have done some work on this, see the variable "columnMode" line 12
of edita.exw. Not sure how best to toggle this though. Paste is fun!

Cool!
When you drag the mouse with the left mouse key pressed, it does normal
"stream" selection. When then the ALT key is pressed additionally, in
some editors "column" selection is applied.
( I just realize that probably "block" is a better term than column in
this context, because it's not actually necessary to select a whole
column in that mode. )
Using the keyboard, pressing SHIFT and the appropriate "arrow key" does
normal selection. Consequently, additionally pressing the ALT key should
apply block selection in this context, too.
For permanently toggling the selection mode, there should be a menu
entry. I'm not sure what a good keyboard shortcut for this is, maybe
CTRL-B (for "block") to toggle it on an off, respectively.
IMHO it also would be nice when the current selection mode is shown on
the status bar.

Juergen

I see (I didn't know that).

Yes. I've done both the above now....

The way I've done it, you switch from column mode to normal mode by
releasing the Alt key, so I've decided against a menu option and
therefore anything in the statusbar.

PS It'll probably be at least a couple of days before I post 0.0.6.
