I hope I can find time for this over the weekend.

Here's the complete list of changes:

"""
Rewrapped docstrings, comments and code to try to get the line length 
below 80 characters.

Added two commands to ibrowse: "pickallattrs" picks a complete column, 
"markrange" marks all objects from the last marked before the cursor to 
the cursor.

Renamed ibrowse commands "sortcolumnasc"/"sortcolumndesc" to 
"sortattrasc"/"sortattrdesc"

Fixed NameError when input in ibrowse is empty.

Added classes FieldTable and Fields: This simplifies generating 
browsable input. Use those classes where appropriate.

Moved the ibrowse help to a global string that gets split and rewrapped 
automatically.
"""

BTW, I you can't type the umlaut-o from my name (e.g. in doc/ChangeLog) 
you should transliterate "Dörwald" as "Doerwald" not as "Dorwald". Thanks!

Bye,
