On Emacs I can use string-insert-rectangle to overwrite the text of a rectangle selection. I was wondering if there is anything similar to this in Xemacs (using Xemacs 21.4.22). I currently have to do this in two steps. 1) Delete the text I want to replace 2) Prefix the text I want to add. I would like to make this a single step issue just like in Emacs. Thanks for any hint.

It sounds like you want string-rectangle, with pending-delete-mode enabled. – Mike Kupfer Feb 15 '13 at 02:18
