PASTE
Same as the INSERT HERE command---pastes the text you last cut or copied.
Steps:
1. Put the cursor where you want to paste the text.
2. Use the PASTE command.
Usage notes:
o By default, PASTE inserts what you cut or copied, pushing existing text
to the right and down. SET BOX SELECT makes PASTE (or any key defined
for it) the same as BOX PASTE, usually overwriting existing text---see
help on Ranges And Boxes.
o Depending on your setting, the text is copied from the INSERT HERE
buffer or the DECwindows clipboard. Default is SET NOCLIPBOARD. To view
the INSERT HERE buffer---for example, to check what you last copied or
cut---use the command BUFFER INSERT HERE.
o PASTE does not automatically rewrap text. Depending on where and how
much you paste, your text may go past the right margin or even out of
view. To reformat your text, use FILL commands.
