Is there a way to select columns of text, rather than selecting entire lines?

hold on the ALT key, and use the mouse to drag the columns.
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.

On my debian machine, I have to use Ctrl+Alt and select with the left mouse-key pressed.

Alt works on Centos, as Ollydbg has described.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

I don't say it does not work in general, but it does not work here.
Might be a gnome shortcutr, but Alt + left mouse-button moves the actual window.

Hm, I've remapped this to be win+left (the gnome shortcut), because I need alt+left for another program :)

How did you map it to Win + Left?

Somewhere in the settings, I don't remember any more :)

Alt + left button in Ubuntu moves the whole window.  And, I can't seem to find the selection in Settings to change the key mapping.  Does anyone know how?

As I wrote some posts earlier, using Ctrl + Alt + left button instead works fine here.

EDIT:
You have to remap Alt+ left in your window manager settings, not in C::B.
Ther selection settings can not be changed (easily).
