[Jed-users-l] What is "rectangular" copy/paste?

[Daniel Carrera <dcarrera@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

Simple question (i think): What is a "rectangular" copy and paste? For
example, in the Emacs bindings you get:

setkey("kill_rect",		"^XRK");
setkey("open_rect",		"^XRO");
setkey("copy_rect",		"^XRR");
setkey("insert_rect",		"^XRY");
setkey("string_rectangle",	"^XRT");

And there are similar bindings for CUA. What do these functions do?

Cheers,
Daniel.
