delete buffer questions

I need som things explained about the automatic delete buffers 1-9. When I delete rows using dd the deleted text is put in the default buffer, using dd again will put it in 1 and so on. But if I use another kind of deletion like dw, I couldnt fetch it from the buffers 1-9, only from the first

button "t" useless?

Whats the reason vim has the function t which does the same as f, only moving to the character before? It seems useless to me; you can use f insted of t always, or...? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/button-%22t%22-useless--tf3643549.html#a10175443 Sent from the Vim - Gene
