Hi,
is there a way to do this more effectively?
I often get in the situation of yanking a word
into the buffer, search another word I want to
replace with the contents of the buffer, delete
the found word and paste the contents of the buffer
at the place of the previously found word.
Despite the fact, that -- without the yank-ring
script -- you have to keep an eye on what is
in what buffer, it would be more effective
if one could do the following:
yw "yank replacement word
/word "find word ("word") to be replaced
cw "change word under cursor with that in buffer
I know, that "cw" is another command, which is "wrong" in
this case...I only needed a name for what I want to do and
cw keeps track of the length of the replaced word and the
replacement.
Thank you very much for any helpful hint :) !
Keep editing!
