XEmacs does rectangular cut/paste with regular text files. Hold Alt-<Mouse Right Button> and drag the mouse, and you will be marking a rectangular area. Then kill it with C-x r k. Put the cursor where you want to paste, and type C-x r y. If you don't want to delete the rectangular text from the original location, just undo with C-x u after killing the rectangle, and then paste it. (A 'copy rectangle to kill buffer' command would avoid this, but couldn't find one when I searched, I admit.)
