If you've ever tried to copy and paste multiple lines of text, you know what a pain it is."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1289824111.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>If you want to swap lines of text, this is the tool for you. It allows you to copy text that you are replacing with other text, while you are replacing it, if that makes sense. I've come across this problem in the past, as recently as yesterday, where I had to copy the text I wanted to replace, paste it on another line so I didn't lose it, then paste over the original line with the new text. Whew. It is a free download available <a href="http://wohclams.net/copyswap/" target="_blank">here</a>, and works on Snow Leopard.</p>
