Replace mode
From Normal mode, R activates Replace mode, which
behaves a lot like Insert mode, except that it allows you to effectively
type over existing content. This is different from r, which
is a single character replacement (ending back in Normal mode) -
R requires you to deliberately exit back to Normal
mode.
