Vertial select is available in console (DOS) version of Sqlplus too. If you 
haven't enabled QuickEdit mode, you have to go to Edit->Mark every time you 
want to select.

Addition to my last message. sqlplus in UNIX/Linux terminal may also suffer 
from the problem of characters disappearing when multiple chr(13) are in the 
output, e.g.

$ sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production on Fri Feb 25 10:09:47 2011
...
SQL> select 'x'||chr(13)||'y'||chr(13)||'z' from dual;

'X'||
-----
z

Also in the old win SQLPLUS you could highlight a column in the middle of the
