Saw this over at daringfireball.net[1]:
NSTextView — the default text editing control in Cocoa apps — has been significantly upgraded [in Tiger]. You can do discontinuous selections with Command-drag, and column selections with Option- drag. You can use these new selection gestures in most Cocoa apps — including in textarea fields in Safari and any other app that uses Web Kit. (Thanks to Quentin Carnicelli.)
It's nice to see Cocoa's text support improving, even though it's not up to the level of Allan's work.
Actually, it [column mode selection] seems useless in NSTextView since it doesn't paste back in column mode. Kinda like BBEdit did theirs I think.
