    No editor has that stupid feature.


    If you don't want to type over highlighted text, don't type over
    highlighted text.

    If you do want to type over highlighted text, type over highlighted text.


    They sure do make 'em dumb in Iran.

    Listen up, Junior. I was doing assembly language programming in 1980. Yes, 45
    years ago.


    But you don't now. Do you. And he does!

    Yes I do. No he does not. Copying/pasting some useless code is NOT "programming in assembly".

    You couldn't even answer my question, "What simple editor has the

    What do text editors have to do with assembly language? But since you ask, MS Word has this. So does Outlook. Probably lots of editors do this. Probably lots do not. BFD.

    What is your point? If you want a list of editors that do this, do an internet search.

    Listen up, Junior. I was doing assembly language programming in 1980. Yes, 45
    years ago. There is so much more to assembly language than just doing simple block moves of memory. That's like saying you can build a house because you can move a stack of bricks from point A to point B.

    You toddling in here and proclaiming "assembly is so great!" is only further proof of what a clueless kiddie you are. What's next? Will you offer us your opinion on color monitors versus green screen monitors? Burroughs EBCDIC versus IBM EBCDIC? COBOL versus Fortran?

    What a twat.

    BTW your "program" looks like more copy & paste from The Physics Forum.

    heh! He's such a dbl-talking liar, hypocrite and fuckhead. Which is
    why at age 43 he's still womanless and still lives in Mom's basement.
