You should find that the sequence of "clocate *", folowed by
"cursor column", should do the job.  I haven't tried it, so I won't
guarentee it, however judging from the behaviour of some of the other
column commands that I use more often, this should work.

And just to throw in my two cents worth, I find that judiceous
use of the linemode commands in xedit can be wonderfully time
saving (you should see some the looks I get from some of the people
who only use full-screen functions, and the arrow keys, and think
they are using the full power of xedit).  And I quite like having
the cursor go to the command line when I hit enter, it saves me a 
lot of typeing time having to get there in other ways (just in response
to annother earlyer comment).  I have all ways considered Emacs to be
my favorate editor, but XEdit comes in a close second.

Anyhow, I hope my first paragraph helps,
