There's the brute force method, in which you use alt-drag to highlight the second column and copy it. Go to the first column and use alt-drag to highlight the ends of the rows, paste in your separator, then past in the second column. Repeat, *ad anuseum,* with the remaining columns.

Cleverer folks than I can probably come up with something elegant, but the brute force thing works.

I have this problem as well, at least occasionally, so I would love to see a better solution.

Anybody?

Hi there,

I am trying to reproduce a table, which I copied the elemnts out of a pdf-file to create a LaTeX-Table. Fortunately there is a macro in the LaTeX-Bundle, which creates a table of selected items automatically.

But my items, when pasted into TextMate aren´t properly formated. There a 3 blocks consisting of 10 rows. The blocks are seperated by an empty line. But I would like to have the block (name it vector) as a column, and the second vector as the second column...ending with a 10x3 Matrix

So, how to change this: a a a

b b b

c c c

Into: a b c a b c a b c

Thank you very much for your help.
