You can enter blockwise-visual mode (control+v) at the beginning of the block/line, traverse down to the end of the desired make-this-a-quote (so you should now have the first column of each line highlighted visually), they type "I" (capital-eye to insert at the beginning of the block, `:help v_b_I`), followed by the "> " that you want to insert to add the quoting. Alternatlively, you can use ex-mode commands like :'<,'>s/^/> / (the trailing slash is optional, but there to make the space more visible) If it's something you do frequently, you could create a mapping like vnoremap <f7> :s/^/> /<cr> so when you have a range of lines highlighted, such as with vip you can hit <f7> to quickly comment the range of lines. -tkc --
