Hi,
	Excuse this stupid VI question... but,
	How in VI, visual mode to you specify a count which indicates the
whole buffer ? At the moment, I either have to find out how lines there are
(by ^G) and then type that in explicitly, or go into EX mode and type 1,$
	How do you, for example, pipe the entire buffer into another program
in visual mode ?, or delete the entire buffer without :1,$d<CR>
	Thanks.
