- Rinaldi's Listoid XCMD does this multiple-line selection bit very well.
- It is available at finer ftp sites near and far. Just click to select
- lines, shist-click to select contiguous lines, and command-click to
- select discontiguous lines. it even returns, on double-click, the
- text selected, as well as the line numbers selected.

- Frederic's XCMD's and XFCN's run a few $$ for licensing (high $$, IMHO),
- but he *does* fiix reported bugs very quickly, and supports the externals
- very well. Well worth the $$.
