I was thinking of storing the value(PLT_count) into a register(clipboard) and then printing it via 'p'. But now the problem is I am only able to store the value in " register and am not able to store in any other named register(a,b,c etc.,)
The sequence that works now:
"=PLT_count
p
The sequence which I want to work out fine is:
"v=PLT_count
p
What the syntax to store a global variable's value into register rather than the content from d or y operations?
