vi editor

[Brian D. McGrew]

Open the DESTINATION file in vi and move the cursor to the line where
you desire the source file to be inserted.

:r /path/to/file/name.txt <cr>

Will "read" in that file to the current file.

:b!

Hi ALL

How do i select the entire contents of the file using vi to copy and
then paste it to the other file

For example

vi copy --- > select the entire contents on one machine
vi paste ---> paste it on the second machine

Thanks

Kaushal
