"Block" parameter in TLMDCustomEditView SetSelection ?

The SetSelection method (and some related methods) appears to need a parameter referring to a "block" mode. I don't see this documented. I ~think~ I have the latest help file. This is for the LMD Syntax Editor current as of now (April 2012) installed in C++ Builder 2007. Can you tell me what it refers to? Thank you.

    Block mode is an alternative selection mode. It supported in almost all code editors. For example, in Delphi source editor you can select some text using:
    1) MouseDown and Move.
    2) Shift + <ArrowKey>

    However, you can also use block mode using:
    1) Alt + (MouseDown and Move)
    2) Alt + Shift + <ArrowKey>

    This will select a rectangular text block. The same thing is implemented in LMD-SyntaxEdit.
