I tend to use :t. to copy the current line to the line below it without messing up my scratch register. You can specify other destinations if you prefer: :t$ " copy this line to the end of the file :t0 " copy this line to the beginning of the file :t+3 " copy this line to 3 lines below :t/pattern/ " copy this line after the next line containing "pattern" :t/pattern/-3 " copy to 3 lines before the next match of "pattern" -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
