Feature request: Support ⌥-dragging to be able to select rectangular blocks of text?
- iTerm2 version: 3.3.10beta1
- OS version: 10.15.3
It would be really nice to see support for old-fashioned Mac ⌥-draggin to be able to select a rectangular block of text. I'm not sure what the proper name for this is... but what I'm referring to is the ability to select an arbitrary group of rows and columns of text, then paste this elsewhere.
Current support for this seems to be being waning in a number of "newer" apps (even Safari doesn't seem to like it, but with "older" apps (Terminal.app, MS Word, TextEdit, TextMate... I'm pretty sure this feature goes back to OS 9) it works brilliantly and I still use it a lot.
