Hi y’all, So I often have this use-case of needing to replace some occurences of a regex in a file, but only if it’s in a certain context. G sometimes works for that, if the necessary context is the same line as the replaced string. But, if the context is spread over lines around the regex match, I have to manually search for these and excruciatingly edit them.
Which brings me to: what if G line printing was configurable? Like with other commands, allowing [pnl] suffix? This way, the output format for the line to edit might have more information and make it easier to make decisions. Extra points: z command suffix to show lines around the affected line instead of just the line by itself. I mean, this is a huge feature that I’m not sure y’all are interested in, but it’d unlock a whole bunch of workflows! Thanks and sorry, -- Artyom Bologov https://aartaka.me
