Sorry about not disabling the default: "[X] Include quoted text". Who's got knowledge/experience in using mcedit's facility to: pass a block-of-text out of the editors, have the block modified, and reinsert the modified block back to the edited file? Eg. like spellcheck and re-format does, via F19. Putting a further `case-branch` on the 'indent-script' could cater for the users own extra requirements. Eg. I often need to do search-and-replace, on a whole block of lines; but like most normal editors, mcedit's search-and-replace only does 1 line. Expanding the F19 facility, can potentially do anything with the marked-block which is passed out. So, to delete the redundantly-repeating block from the rest of the file, it could create a new file containing only the first appearance of the block. My attempts so far have failed. Is it appropriate to discus my small, but convoluted script on this forum, for a solution? _______________________________________________ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
