Now I know you can replace i.e xxx with yyy etc etc...
but how about if I got this:
heyx
heyx
heyx
And then I want to replace all the x with numbers.
So I can simply fill in the start number, so i.e
if I fill in the startnumber 234, the output would be:
hey234
hey235
hey236
This could really save some time,
Like if I also wanna do a list, I can do:
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
x -
And then I do this new function starting with number 1,
and the output would simply be:
1 -
2 -
3 -
4 -
5 -
6 -
7 -
8 -
9 -
10 -
Yeay xD
Let me know what you think. :)

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I believe the first three items in the Plugins: TextFX: TextFX Edit menu can already do most, maybe all, of this, but I have a tough time remembering how to use them to full advantage. You'll have to consult the TextFX documentation for the details.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Copy the text "234#" (without the quotes) to the clipboard.
Put your cursor before the x in the first line. Hold down the <Alt>+<Shift> keys, and move the cursor just past the x in the last line.
Choose TextFX: TextFX Edit: Insert (Clipboard) through lines.
You now have
hey234x
hey235x
hey236x
You can delete the x's with search/replace or with a keystroke macro. Better yet, don't bother typing the x's in the first place.
Similar steps will also work for the second task you mentioned, but in some cases you can more simply use TextFX: TextFX Tools: Insert Line Numbers.

You're talking about the column edition.
It'll be in the next release (v4.2).

Whoops! Correction. I meant to type "#234", not "234#".
