I am not sure how to do that just with vi but: Since you can easily pass your document through a unix command filter, you could just write your own sed command to do that for you and bind it to a key with map. eg. :1,5 !tr a-z A-Z makes line 1 to 5 uppercase. or :1,10 !sed "s/^[a-z].*/ &/" Might do what you want. I haven't tried it, but, you get the idea. If I could remember off hand how to do a negative search in sed, I would just skip all lines beginning with a number. Joel
