Many thanks. That does help. But I still can't get my pastes into the
right spot.
Also, I just remembered that I also have Cygwin installed on this same
computer, and a unix version of vim running under Cygwin. Version
6.0.11. So I tried using it, and the result is different but still
wrong. The text is now placed after the rebol block I am trying to place
the text in. For example:
[{I want the text here}]but instead it is placed here.
