I know I could do it with a 'cat' command that captures

specified. I'd have a toggle setting for "draft" or
"revision" mode, then would select the files by number using
a case/select.
Well, what about
$r !cat
Does this differ any from just using "append" (":help :a") mode?
:$a
other than that you end it by typing a lone period on the line
instead of with an EOF? (and the cautioned "lines-beginning with
a backslash", though if Tao is writing a novel, I expect this is
less of a concern...I can't think of many novels I've read that
contain back-slashes unless you're also including markup)
