Hello,

I have a 9MB XML files I am working with.

I would like to select a block of about 90,000 lines in a file and copy them
to the clipboard so they can be pasted in another file.

Doing this with the mouse would probably take until the sun burns out.

Is there anyway to say to vim:

"Start selecting on line 3, and continue selecting to 90,000" ?

Sure.

Go to Normal mode. Type 3G, then you *probably* want 90000"+yy to copy
to clipboard.
