Hi all,

I want to add content at beginning or end of dedicated line by COMMAND. I used to use "Ctrl-v"->select a column->"Shift I"->enter. But found sometimes the method complex.

For example, I have a file like:
#---File begin---
123
4567
891ab
cdefgh
#---File end---

And add "//" to the beginning of line "1" to "3", the file will be:
#---File begin---
//123
//4567
//891ab
cdefgh
#---File end---

And add "##" to the end of line "2" to "4", the file will be:
#---File begin---
//123
//4567##
//891ab##
cdefgh##
#---File end---

Thanks!
Davy
