Recently some cut and paste "maps" were posted,
I have my own version which may be a little bit easier to
use and understand. Internaly they use :
mc - cut mark
mp - paste mark
"t - text register
giving rise to the following maps
:map #1 mc
:map #2 mp'c"tddmc'p"tpmp
:map #3 mp'c"tddmc'p"tp-J+
which do the following
f1 - marks the cut region
f2 - paste one line vertically
f3 - paste one line horizontally
for example take the text :
a
b
c
d
e
f
Move to "d" hit "cut" (f1). Move to "a" hit "paste horiz." (f3) three times.
This yields :
a d
b e
c f
