> The thing which will never work in terminal is ctrl-c and ctrl-v.
If you enable cua-mode in Emacs, C-c and C-v work perfectly fine as copy and paste. Even in the terminal.
> There are a few comments above about region undo. In vstudio it sounds ugly, but it's trivially easy. Press and hold undo (ctrl-z) and let key repeat until the block appears as you want. Select it, copy. Press and hold redo. Select area. Paste.
That works in practically every editor. The entire point of region undo is that it's faster and more convenient than doing it manually.
