Which version of vim are you using? On what platform?
The reason I'm asking is that vim 6.0 and vim 5.x are
slightly different (one keystroke), and gvim lets you
also use a drop-down menu.
In vim 5.x you use
"*p
to insert after the current cursor position. In vim 6.0
"+p
(IIRC, I'm sitting in front of a box that has 5.5 on it).
If you run gvim instead (supported on X for Unix/Linux
and on w95/nt/2k... ) there is a past option in the
drop-down "Edit" window that does the same thing. Another
advantage of using gvim is that the dropdowns all show the
equivalent key commands, so it's a painless way to learn
them.
Of course, if you use
"*P
(or
"+P
in vim 6), you'll paste AFTER the current cursor position.
