Hi,
finally I found (nearly) what I am searching for...but...
I wanted a command which after doing a y$ from in the midth of a
line, puts my yanked text after the end of the line and the cursor
right after the put text.
The help of "gP" states (my im is "nocompatible"):
["x]gP Just like "P", but leave the cursor just after the new
text. {not in Vi}
But it seems I understand the help wrongly. Example:
This is a very boring example of a line.
x
(x=position of the cursor)
I do a y$gP and the line looks like:
This is a very boring example of a line.a very boring example of a line.
x
The help says:
...but leave the cursor just after the *new*
text.
Hi,
Using your example of a boring line I got:
This is a very boring example of a line.
x
Doing y$P I get :
This is a very boring example of a line.s a very boring example of a line.
x
and y$gP I get :
This is a very boring example of a line.s a very boring example of a line.
x
This might be case of the help being slightly ambiguous. I think what
it means is, after the new text *starts*, and not at the end of the
new text. If you see no need for the gP function, you could do
:nmap gP gP$
which would give you the behaviour you expected.
