Consider it stolen! ;) I sometimes have to keep text to a column limit -- often 80 characters, or 72, depending on circumstances.  Or need to keep track of just how long the lines are, without having a hard limit.  For these, I enter the string "1234567890", copy, and paste it whatever number of times.  Sometimes I replace the "0" with letters "A", "B", etc. to label the 10s.
