[Rwp] Copying Multiple Items on Multiple Tracks

[Derek Lane]

I managed it once by making a selection, pressing shift+S to make sure 
everything was split in to items on each side,  copying, going to where 
I wanted things to go, presssing shift+s to split across everything, 
making sure ripple editing was set to all, then pasting.
