Paste the contents of the hold space (see h or H command) back into the pattern space, wiping out the previous contents of the pattern space. The example shows a simple way to copy lines.

### Example

This script collects all lines containing the word `Item:` and copies them to a place marker later in the file. The place marker is overwritten.

>     /Item:/H
>     /<Replace this line with the item list>/g
