> This isn't meant to be a dig at you, That is, of course, how it comes across, although a fairly mild one. If it's not meant as a dig then I would suggest generalising the phrasing to something like "many people" so that it's not direct at me. As it happens I do know how to copy and edit registers. It's actually something I rarely need though because I can do most multi-line edits using just Vim's visual blocks. That's out of the box with no plugins. I only mention multi-cursor plugins because they illustrate that Vim/NeoVim can and will be taught to every new trick over time, which is one of the nice things about an actually open source editor.
