TSEjr-OS/2 version 4.0 (formerly QEDIT/2) lets you do
exactly this.  Easily.  The version 2 and 3 might not
though.  I can't remember.

TSEjr-OS/2 has only a [deleted-line] UNDO.  Not a "true"
UNDO feature.
I agree with you that TSE/2 doesn't look like it'll ever
see the light of day.  Although I really like TSEjr/2, I
might have to have a closer look at Boxer/2 if I need some
of the "extra" features over TSEjr/2.
I don't want to run DOS TSE either.  I have it (registered)
but never use it.
