Question

In .vimrc I tried to do

nmap p "0p

But with this row my vim just hangs. Can anyone help me? What am I doing wrong?

I’m trying this because when I yank a line and if I use del button after yanking, then the register “” changes to the character I deleted. But register “0 stays the same.

Thanks

Vim attempts to recursively map p, resulting in an infinite loop. Use nnoremap instead:

nnoremap p "0p
