Buffers are great. Comes very handy when creating macros in vim.

Do you yank to places outside the regular target when you create macros?

[–] puppy@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

What do you mean by regular target? I am either yanking from the OS buffer or yanking things from 2 different buffers. Or I have 2 macros where they yank from different buffers.
