vip: Put Back Commands
2.9.3 Put Back Commands
-----------------------
Deleted or yanked texts can be put back into the buffer by the command
below.
‘p’
Insert, after the character point is looking at, most recently
deleted/yanked text from anonymous register. Given a register name
argument, the content of the named register will be put back.
Given a count, the command will be repeated that many times. This
command also checks if the text to put back ends with a new line
character, and if so the text will be put below the current line
(‘vip-put-back’).
‘P’
Insert at point most recently deleted/yanked text from anonymous
register. Given a register name argument, the content of the named
register will be put back. Given a count, the command will be
repeated that many times. This command also checks if the text to
put back ends with a new line character, and if so the text will be
put above the current line rather than at point (‘vip-Put-back’).
Thus, ‘" c p’ will put back the content of the register ‘c’ into the
buffer. It is also possible to specify “number register” which is a
numeral between ‘1’ and ‘9’. If the number register N is specified,
N-th previously deleted/yanked text will be put back. It is an error to
specify a number register for the delete/yank commands.
