In the command line (after pressing ':'), press Ctrl-r then Ctrl-w, or press Ctrl-r then Ctrl-a. See: :help c_CTRL-R_CTRL-W Also, you could select something, then press y to yank (copy) it. In the command line, press Ctrl-r then " (double quote). When fixed up, the tip for this is: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Word_under_cursor_for_command John --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
