In Vim, if I have a file like this:
one two I visually select "one" by using ve and then yank it by using y, it gets copied to the default register (referred to as the "clipboard").
If I then visually select "two" by using ve and paste the contents of the default register on top of it using p, the file is updated to look like this:
one one The value of "two" has been yanked to the default register, and if I want to paste the value of "one" again in another location, I would have to yank it again.
Is there a way to paste the contents of the default register on top of a visual selection in Vim without overwriting its value in the default register?
I understand that there are alternative approaches, such as using search and replace, but I'm specifically asking about the visual selection features in Vim.
