Currently, I'm doing it laboriously by hand, but is it possible to highlight it and then with one key-press insert ";" in front of each and ev= ery line of the code please? I haven't seen this ability anywhere, but being able to do it would make things a whole lot easier for me, so, can it be done please folks?
