Kinesics Text Editor Column Editing
The Kinesics Text Editor implements full column editing, not just column
marking. Many text editors allow clipboard type operations on rectangular text
selections as well as the normal stream selections. Column editing takes this
type of functionality to the next step, allowing the simultaneous editing of
multiple lines of text.
In the Kinesics Text Editor, column selections are treated as an extended
cursor. Any editing performed while a column selection exists affects all lines
of the column selection. This provides an alternative to keyboard macros for
many multiline editing tasks.
The implementation of column editing is intuitive and quickly
becomes second nature to most users.
