Hi all,
I just wanted to air my thoughts on big blocks/cursors.
I realy don't see what a block has to do with a cursor. A block is a lump,
or lumps, of text, which is marked. A block can be moved, cut, coppied,
saved to a clipboard etc, where as a cursor is a small symbol on the screen,
showing where text will appear when I type.
If I ever find a piece of software that does not obay the above rules, then I
will not be using it!
BTW, Ofir: Your last proposal looked very good to me. I'd be happy with it.
Mark H.
