Lines: 14 Is there any way to move a block of text in vi? When I say block, I mean a rectangle of text. For example: what EVER is in upper CASe in this senteNCE is part of a BLOCk of text and wHATEver is in lower CASe is not part OF The block. So the block starts in column 6 and continues to column 9. I would like to be able to pick up the block and insert or overlay it in another position. Thanks in advance.
