I use Sublime Text 3, Build 3103. Here it is written that highlights of columns is entered into Build 3080, but I see nothing.

Highlights column

Plugin GoCowRol for Sublime Text 2, not Sublime Text 3. Thanks.

  • What do you mean by highlight columns? The command `:5:20` repositions the caret to line 5 in front of character 20 (if you hit enter after typing the command). This is actually a built in feature since 3080 and works also in 3103 (tested). – Pᴇʜ Apr 21 '16 at 08:21
  • @Peh, I apologize, I didn't know that columns aren't highlighted, and the caret draws near them. But my caret doesn't draw in front of character 20 of a line 5 but only the line is highlighted. Thanks. – Саша Черных Apr 21 '16 at 08:32

    Make sure that line 5 has at least 20 characters. If there are less then the caret jumps over to the next line. And make sure you confirm the command by pressing `enter`. The line is already selected on the fly while you are typing but for the column you need to confirm with `enter`. – Pᴇʜ Apr 21 '16 at 09:59
  • @Peh, thank you very much, I didn't think that `Enter` should press. Please, make the your comment as answer. – Саша Черных Apr 21 '16 at 11:03
