List field line-up

[Sarah]

How about this:
	put the hilitedLines of me into lineNums
	set the hilitedLines of fld 2 to lineNums
	set the hilitedLines of fld 3 to lineNums

I have found that select doesn't always work, but the hilitedLines will 
work whether you have multiple lines selected or just one.
