    Hi,

    I've made a screencast that I hope will explain my idea/proposal

      Hi,

      As far as I know, you can select (using Alt), copy and paste columns, but the column mode is quite limited:

      -You can't indent/un-indent columns.
      -You can't past a column to wherever you like, because you can't put the caret outside the existing text area.

      I hope this will be possible in the future but I don't have any information regarding developing these features.

      I might look into it if it's possible to do this without modifying scintilla (a component used in npp) .

        Hi,

        yeah I've noticed those limitations, but that is no excuse ;)

        If you could look into it that would be a benefit for everyone but if it would require modifying scintilla - then don't bother.

        cheers

      now I'm wondering why did I even bother to write a post, not to mention the screencast...
