Hmmm... block commands are a big strength of joe (Joe's own editor). Start block with ^KB, end block with ^KK. Blocks can be copied with ^KC, moved with ^KM and deleted with ^KY. ^KH and "man joe" for more details. Another solution is mcedit, the editor that comes with the Midnight Commander. Press PF3 on block start, move to block end, press PF3, the block will be selected. Press PF8 to delete it. And a third suggestion: the (The Hessling Editor), a very powerful editor, allthough "a bit strange" to learn. If you already have an ISPF/PDF background, this editor will be for you. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
