Message-ID: <1170962128.311804.182850@v45g2000cwv.googlegroups.com> (raw)

hello again!
Quite frequently I paste stuff which is space-separated.
I would really like a function that would let me select a region and
keep only a column, deleting all the rest.
Anyone knows how I could implement something like this?
I can do it with regexps, but then I have to come up with a new one
every time...
TIA
HS
