I have a problem when i am in visual mode and i have text highlighted.
Instead of being able to run a command, it just overwrites my selected
text instead. im sure its because of something in my vimrc but i just
cant pinpoint it, can anyone help?
P.S.: If anyone sees some errors in my vimrc or maybe how something
can be done more efficiently please let me know.
