It is not same selection. In the second case you yank text and trailing EOL. In the first case you are in linewise mode, so you can’t (and don’t need to because it is covered by the mode flag) yank trailing EOL. If you think this should not happen then answer the question “how can script writer distinguish between the inclusive and exclusive selection yank results given that they behave differently when pasting” (see :h 'selection', alternative to setting this option is moving one character back after `$` motion). > > > -- > David > > -- > -- > You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. > Do not top-post!
