`Shift+v` to select a block of text and do a single operation to the same portion of text on several lines (regexp, aligning, etc.) There's also `vt` + some character to select text from the cursor to the next occurrence of that character.

I've been looking for something like `Shift+v`! Thanks for that. +1 for `vt` as well.

  Also ctrl-v allows you to manipulate a block of text, or insert text on multiple lines at once using I or A for before or after the block.
