Pasting a Block of Text in a New Location 

To insert text from the Cut/Paste buffer into a new location in your
file, use either the Paste Before or the Paste After command.  First,
position the cursor at the location where you would like the text to be
"pasted".  If you want the text to be inserted before the current line,
execute the Paste Before command.  If you want the text to be inserted
after the current line, execute the Paste After command.  Both commands
may be accessed from the function keys.  The key P may also be used to
perform the Paste Before command; the key p may be used to execute Paste
After.

You can perform multiple paste operations.  The text remains in the
Cut/Paste buffer until it is overwritten by another Copy To Buffer or Cut
To Buffer command.
