That is: I kill (or copy) a word, then travel to another word and I'd like to replace the latter with the former. Currently I paste the first word, move a character to the right and kill the second word, but I don't think that's the faster way to do it. Of course, I'm not talking about replacing text in the context of search and replace. Thanks.
