I really like the "gv" command, which starts visual

regardless of where the cursor happens to be.

I would like to see a similar command that starts
visual mode and selects the block of text I have just
pasted in.

After extensive browsing through the help system and
online, I can't find a way to do this.

My vim scripting skills are weak, can anyone tell me
if this is possible to script a command for?  I'm not
sure if vim retains information about the boundaries
of the most recently pasted text.


Vim sets the '[ and '] marks to the beginning and end of the
pasted text. You can use the following command to visually
select the last pasted text:

  `[v`]

   :help `]
