I'm trying to finish the level 12 in Vim-Adventures, but it is a little bit hard so far.

enter image description here

I tried to insert text (purple text) with i, a and o, but it didn't work. I wanted to paste the text, but I didn't find the words to complete that.

enter image description here

Could anyone be able to help me at this point?

  • What exactly are you struggling with? Pasting text you've yanked?

You won't be able to just paste the text, because it needs its own line, and I'm not sure how you would get a newline into a named register (and I think the game author wants you to practice using o and O).

  1. In your picture, if you stand on the d in dolphins and press o, it will start a new line where you type "believed that they wereEsc".
  2. Next, stand on the m in man, last line of the text, and press o. It will create a new line where you type "same reasons.Esc"

If it doesn't work the first time, try again in some slightly different way (navigate to man using G instead of j, or standing on a different tile before you press o, etc.) because I had trouble the first time -- I thought it should have worked, but it gave a message about not overflowing the text boundaries or something. It worked the second time -- and I don't recall exactly what I did differently.
