I use 'R' replace mode when doing, for example, ascii art etc because it allows me to change characters without affecting the layout of the rest of the window/page.But if I want to yank a section using visual or visual block, is there a way to put 'p' that block in without affecting the layout? The way I've been doing it, the rest gets pushed along.
Use visual again, and the put will replace the selection: see ":help v_p". Best regards, Tony.
