There are 2 things in VIM that I still don't know how to do:

1) select a line and go to another line.
     p.e. I select line 55 and want to enlarge my selection to line
247.
      normally I use "247G" but in visual?


247G


    I know that I can do this by motion keys "192L" (L = my down key)
    but then I have to calculate every time how many lines I have to go
downwards.

   a) is there a way to do this?
   b) is there a way to insert also a start line?

2) pasting over text without moving the layout alround.
    I does not work in replace mode and not in virtual replace mode.
    Both changes the layout after the inserted text.
    Is there a way to resolve this?


E.g. using visual block mode (ctrl-V): select a block, copy;
select a block of the same dimensions, 'p' to paste. That does
not move layout for me.  -ak
