title: Search and replace in vim: How to use "select text" for long phrases?
body: <p>I use the usual </p>
  
  <pre><code>:%s/this_one/that_one/g
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>for search and replace in vim. However, this method seems really daunting when the phrases "this_one" and "that_one" are quite long especially when both phrases are already present in the file I am editing. I would like to know some method by which I can simply use text selection for these phrases to replace the one by the other. Does such method exist?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance. </p>
