Hi James,
 JM> ==== ... Got it. QEDIT allows you to mark only 1  block  of  contiguous

 JM> the exact same sequence of moving lines (from the  same  positions
 JM> to the same destination) often, then you would  find  it  a  great

Aha, and that is the rub as I seldom want to move the exact same set of
lines at any given time because if I  were to need that, I could easily,
write a macro to do this with.
This is about the only thing that I have not done with qedit yet and was
hoping, but it is still one great program and I am delighted at what it
enables me to do.
As a totally blind person, I  am grateful for programs like this, that give
me such a wide scope .
thanks for your willingness to help.
Blessings,
Wally.
