🚀 go-pugleaf

The question is simple:  Is there a way to use just a couple of
keystrokes to copy one line (or a yanked buffer) into a file
multiple times?

The "Bell Labs vi User's Handbook" says that you can specify how
many copies you want when using the "p'ut" command, but when tried
on either of two different vi's it doesn't work.

I'm not much into macros but this didn't seem possible using a
macro, either, as put isn't allowed in macros.  (At least not
in my version of vi.)

Ideally I'd either like a way to specify how many  copies of
a set of lines go into the unamed buffer, or to specify how
many copied come out.

Thanks,

Sean.
