If you want to put something into one of vi's named buffers, then you must use the 'yank' command: Y, or yy or other variants. When you use 'dd', you delete the line, and it goes into the "unnamed" buffer, also called buffer 0. -- Jean-Pierre Radley CIS: 72160,1341 jpr@jpradley.UUCP

A "add command deletes the current line and puts it in buffer a. It can be simply retreived with a put comand. -- * Tom Moore NCR Corporation PCD-6 (513) 445-1373 * * Consulting Analyst 1700 S.

I have tried to do what Bernhard Kraft appears to be trying. I can see the Inserted_Text on the screen, it disappears, as expected but cannot be found **anywhere** (not in the named buffers nor the unnamed), but entering the commands totally manually, or breaking it up into two parts, one for the insert, the other for the delete, work fine: map q OInsertedText^[ map g "gdd Entering q adds the text, g deletes it to buffer g, and I can put it from buffer g. ????
