I'm mostly an observer here - but..
A. You should know you got a useful and correct response to your question
B. If that is not the answer you are looking for, you should go back
and check the question you asked.
C. Entirely optional - but politeness goes a long way.
You can "edit" the contents of the registers in many ways. You can
even set the register directly with a :let
:let @a="D"
You can view it with an :echo @a
However - if you are using registers for recording macros - the
register may not have printable characters.
