28 Using Visual mode consists of three parts:
32 The text from the start of the Visual mode up to and including the
38 highlighting in Visual mode.
44 after the Visual area, the character under the cursor is not included.
52 With CTRL-V (blockwise Visual mode) the highlighted text will be a rectangle

217 4. Operating on the Visual area *visual-operators*
281 Note that the ":vmap" command can be used to specifically map keys in Visual
282 mode. For example, if you would like the "/" command not to extend the Visual
298 Another way to operate on the Visual area is using the |/\%V| item in a
299 pattern. For example, to replace all '(' in the Visual area with '#': >

410 Visual-block Examples *blockwise-examples*
466 Select mode looks like Visual mode, but the commands accepted are quite
478 - From Visual mode, press CTRL-G. *v_CTRL-G*
488 - CTRL-O switches to Visual mode for the duration of one command. *v_CTRL-O*
489 - CTRL-G switches to Visual mode.
491 Otherwise, typed characters are handled as in Visual mode.
501 work both in Visual mode and in Select mode. When these are used in Select
502 mode Vim automatically switches to Visual mode, so that the same behavior as
503 in Visual mode is effective. If you don't want this use |:xmap| or |:smap|.
