While the visual mode selection is active, hitting "o" moves to the
opposite corner. If it isn't doing that for you, I'd check for
vmap
interference.
3. Changing the Visual area *visual-change*
*v_o*
o Go to Other end of highlighted text: The current
cursor position becomes the start of the highlighted
text and the cursor is moved to the other end of the
highlighted text. The highlighted area remains the
same.
Keep in mind that it doesn't work the same with a selection made by
the mouse, since that leaves it in "select" mode not visual mode,
which has some properties like insert mode, but in general has to be
treated differently. Use ^G to switch visual/select modes.

How exactly does this work? When I hit o in command mode, it adds a newline
below and moves the cursor down. If I hit o in select mode, it overtypes my
selection. Hitting l does move the character to the right, but not if it's
on the last line.
Sorry, must've just misunderstood you. Would you mind explaining again?
Thanks.
