Description
Description of Problem:
When copying a snippet of code from a terminal, I often wish to NOT include the tabbing, as this messes up the code which the snippet is pasted into.
Being able to select/copy a SQUARE would make my life much easier.
Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. 2. 3.
Actual Results:
If multiple lines are selected, the WHOLE of the lines between the first and the last
Expected Results:
Hold down the alt key while selecting text and a BOX is selected instead of entire lines.
How often does this happen?
All the time :)
Additional Information:
Microsoft Word does this. Press alt and you get a square selection tool. Neat, huh?
