<p>Does anyone know of a way to paste over a visually selected area without having the selection placed in the default register?</p>

<p>I know I can solve the problem by always pasting from an explicit register. But it's a pain in the neck to type <kbd>"</kbd><kbd>x</kbd><kbd>p</kbd> instead of just <kbd>p</kbd></p>

try -
```
```
:set guioptions-=a
:set guioptions-=A
```
```
