Hi, I am trying to getting adept at VIM editing. There are few problems I am facing. I do not know how to copy from file and then paste it into search command or colon command. e.g. I have to search for word "foo" in the file. I want to be able to copy this word "foo", invoke search mode by pressing "/" and then paste the word there. I can do this by "C-c" and then "C-v" in gvim but I want to do this in VIM way not windows way.
I know I can copy by either visually selecting the word("V-w") and then yanking it("y") or copy it ("+y), but I do not know how to paste this word in search mode(After I press "/") or in command mode(After I press ":"). Can anyone please guide me in this regard. Thank you very much in advance :) Thanks, Vivek -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
