Is there a reason #emacs doesn't have a simple kill-/yank-rectangle system that #DWIM ?

I just spent probably 45m struggling to move verses 3 and 4 of a song into a second column. I got every combination except the right one.

Finally had to resort to picture mode.

Every time I reach for `git stash` I think to myself:

"Making my saving throw for actually being able to restore this work when I come back to it... OK that's 5 D20 but WHOA what a penalty!" :)

#git #DWIM #stupidhumantricks

#Audacity audio editing software has a habit of nagging you to Select All instead of just showing the filter's dang dialog box. Today I learned how to make Audacity stop nagging and #DoWhatIMean. #DWIM

Edit > Preferences > Tracks > Tracks Behaviors > Select all audio, if selection required

I've split my #Emacs frame into 2 windows, each pointing at a different directory via #dired, and copied files left and right #DWIM style.

I rarely ever use this. But when I do, it's great.

UNLESS you have #DWIM.
