Re-inserting the Same Text. One common editing function in Visual mode is to copy the same text to many different places. Users often mark the text they want to copy, add it at one place and then go back and mark the original block again. This is actually unnecessary because cut-and-paste operations save the lines they process in a temporary file "Hold0". To copy from the Hold0 file, use these special functions: A0 copy "after" this line from Hold0 B0 copy "before" this line from Hold0 Hold0 is actually called /usr/tmp/qholdBAAa25295.0 on HP-UX, but you can still do /list hold0 and Qedit will find it; the "BAAa25295.0" is a random filename generated by UNIX to get around the fact that it has no temporary files.
