I cut a line with dd and then I want to paste the entire line at the end of another line. But the problem is that because dd cuts the entire line, it's including the newline character probably too.
And so when I paste via p, it automatically puts it on the next line. And if I do Shift + p, it puts it before the line I'm trying to paste on.
So is there a way to paste the entire line I cut at the end of a line?
