Description Steffen Klemer 2007-03-03 22:27:46 UTC 
I'd really like to have a possibility to select and work with rectangular
areas (like columns in a table). Emacs does this very nice and textmate as
well:

If gtksourceview would support rectangular selection, these features should be possible with (e.g.) scribes or gedit as well.
