What is the point of Virtual replace mode in Vim?
The help says that virtual replace mode commands in Vim gr & GR replace characters in screen estate and not in file.
:help Virtual-Replace-mode
I am understanding this as something like changing the characters on the display but not in the buffer itself. Is that right? It seems incorrect.
I can use an explanation and probably a scenario or an example where this feature is relevant.
