Hi Frank,

Thanks for the reply.

If you for example rectangular select the middle 'column' in the following
in Nedit:  (eg: in the first line it would be 'blah.')

  fred.blah.pl
  mary.john.pl
  fred.blah.pl
  mary.john.pl
  fred.blah.pl
  mary.john.pl
  fred.blah.pl

You can then press <Ctrl>9 a few times and quickly get this:

  blah.fred.pl
  john.mary.pl
  blah.fred.pl
  john.mary.pl
  blah.fred.pl
  john.mary.pl
  blah.fred.pl

In what I do I am often fiddling about with such blocks of filenames and code.

Thanks
