Re: How to do block pasting?

Hi Ken,

Thanks for giving us one of the deepest esoterica of the gvim editor.
But we somehow feel the four consecutive mouse clicks on a same position and in a very short time so horrible that we haven't tried them yet. When a good time should come someday, we'd surely try them, though.

Thanks again.
