- [105] Columns menu: new menu item
Merge Selected Columns
: Columns now can be merged; you have to define the order of columns to be merged, and the target column. The source columns can be deleted optionally.
- Fill Columns: When you auto-fill columns with numeric values, you can now add a space separator (only for prefix and suffix options).
- [176] In the context menu for columns, you can adjust the width of a column.
- [114] [176] Columns menu: new menu item
Adjust All Columns Widths
: The widths of all columns will be adjusted automatically.

- Also columns can be treated with standard copy functions (Cut, Copy, Paste). The columns content will be placed on the pasteboard in a proprietary format for the app as well as in tab-separated strings.
Fixes:
