 MF>> Yeah and did you also know that <Ctrl+Y> deletes a single line :)


 AA> I do now!   I think I may use that more often.

Yeah, I find it much easier to repeatedly press <Ctrl+Y> than to use  
the block functions.

 AA> BTW... is there an UNDO like Ctrl-Z in other editors?

Yes ..... <Ctrl+U> but it can make a mess :(

 AA> Not pleasant!   :(

It's what's known as being a bit convoluted but thanks for posting the  
nice ordered list :)
