Possible Duplicate:
How can I a put a line like “==========” quickly in vim

EDIT

Turns out this question is an exact duplicate of How can I a put a line like "==========" quickly in vim – but that one doesn’t have such a great title…


When editing markdown style files, I like to have

Some heading
------------

Notice the line matches the length of the heading?

Currently I do:

yyp:s/./-/g

But I was wondering if there is any better (less keystrokes) way to do this?

    yypVr- – 7, if you include the shift key.
