BOX PASTE INSERT

  Pastes what you last cut or copied---pushing existing text to the right of
  the box.

  Steps:

     1.  Put the cursor where you want to paste the text---that is,
         where you want to put the upper left corner of the box.

     2.  Use the BOX PASTE INSERT command.

  Example:

     The following example shows the effects of BOX PASTE INSERT---the
     pasted box (indicated by uppercase B's) pushes existing text to the
     right. The cursor position (indicated by X) does not change.

        Before         After BOX PASTE INSERT
        -------        ----------------------
        aaa Xcc        aaa BBBcc
        aaa ccc        aaa BBBccc
        aaa ccc        aaa BBBccc

  Usage notes:

  o  Usually, pasting a box overwrites existing text, depending on your
     settings---same as BOX PASTE OVERSTRIKE. Use BOX PASTE INSERT to have
     the pasted text push existing text to the right of the box, for
     example, in adding columns to the middle of a table.

  o  Pasting a box converts tab characters to spaces, to the right of the
     box or overlapping the box. See help on CONVERT TABS.

  o  Depending on your setting, the text is pasted from the INSERT HERE
     buffer or the DECwindows clipboard. Default is SET NOCLIPBOARD.

  o  If you copied or cut a standard, linear range (that is, by using COPY,
     CUT, REMOVE or STORE TEXT) and then use BOX PASTE INSERT, the pasted
     box may have a ragged right edge because the copy or cut did not pad
     the text with spaces.

  | Box-editing operations are slow with very long box selections, |
  | particularly if buffer-change journaling is in effect (which   |
  | is the default).                                               |
