Change Commands (cont)
Some change commands act on a region of text, specified by movement ...
d move |
| delete text from old to new cursor positions
|
c move |
| change text from old to new cursor positions |
! move cmd |
| filter text from old to new cursor through cmd |
< > move |
| left / right shift text from old to new cursor |
y move |
| grab a copy of text from old to new cursor posn |
Doubling a change command (e.g. dd ) means "do it to the whole line".
Changed text is placed into a buffer, from where it can be retrieved.
