[Geany-Users] add same text to multiple end of line

[Gael Lafond]

The regular expression is probably the best solution, but I would like 
to add this one, in case it is more appropriate for what you are doing, 
and also because it is easier to use for people that do not know regexp.

If all lines have the same length (same amount of text), you could use 
the "Column Mode" from the "Extra Selection" plugin. You position the 
cursor at the end of the first line, enable the "Column Mode" from the 
"Tools > Extra Selection" menu, then you press Shift and arrow down 
which make the cursor goes multiple lines:
(I use the character "|" to represent the text cursor)
aaa|
bbb
ccc
ddd

Shirt + Arrow down 3 times:
aaa|
bbb|
ccc|
ddd|

Then you type your text "ZZ" and it appear at the end of every selected 
lines:
aaaZZ|
bbbZZ|
cccZZ|
dddZZ|

Don't forget to disable the "Column Mode" when you are done. It can be 
quite annoying when you don't need it :)
