Thanks.
What would be the main obstacles to implementing
this ?
I do remember looking through the editor toolkit in
version 1.0 of Eclipse and noting that a number of methods would need to be
changed. Haven't looked more recently though.
With Regards
John

Clarification: Columnar
selection is the ability to select a rectangular area of the text editor
i.e. if the selection starts on column 10, row 5 and ends on column 50,
row 50 only text within the area defined by the rectangle (10, 5),
(50,50) will be selected.
When I was using Codewright full-time this
was one of my most commonly used selection modes and it would be great to
have this within
Eclipse
