That seems to work, thanks.
"When you must specify a rectangle for a command to work on, you do it
by putting the mark at one corner and point at the opposite corner."
Then, `C-x r r R' to copy or `C-x r k' to kill it it and `C-x r y' to paste it
at the desired point.
It's not to jump for joy, it's a bit complicated, but it works. When I think
that in text mode it's very simple... So, another way could be to switch to
text mode, do the job and then switch back to LaTeX mode.
Maybe, then, we needn't become M$ Word users, do we? ;)
