Yeah, this can happen if pattern is found

line number). Just insert 4 dummy empty lines

How can I force it to delete 3 lines from the end?
Disclaimer: Everything below is untested.
Normally, an HTML page should have only one BODY tag. The following
should do (without :g)
:1|/\cbody\/-3d
If you may have, before HTML, a BODY which mustn't trigger a deletion:
:1|/\c\@=html\/;/\cbody\/-3d
If (your original command) you may have several HTML tags in a single
file, and the single line 3 lines above the next BODY tag must be
deleted... well, I think it's doable but I won't venture a command.
Note: \c in a pattern means disregard case, \ means end-of-word,
x\@= means if preceded by x. The latter is used here (in the second
example) to avoid missing HTML at the start of line 1.
Best regards,
Tony.

RE: vim | multiple files editing and delete question
If u have Cygwin then creating a batch file with the following would be the
simplest solution -
set TARGETDIR=C:\something
set SCRIPTDIR=C:\something_else
find %TARGETDIR% -name *.[ch] -exec gvim -s %SCRIPTDIR%\win32_vimscript.vim
{} ;
Basically use find to help u (actually it's just one instruction, so u
don't even need to have a batch file for it)
