Re: SID or s: - General questions about functions
Thank you very much Tony and ZyX.
My functions names do only contains letters, digits and underscores.
If I've understood you well, I can now unify all my functions and
change s: --- SID
change function! --- fun!
change endfunction! -- endfun!
Is that correct?
and can I change also this:
s/\\d\\{2,}/\\=s:MyFunctionName(submatch(0))/g
in:
s/\\d\\{2,}/\\=SIDMyFunctionName(submatch(0))/g

Backtick to move to mark doesn't work (E78: Unknown mark)
Hi. I'm having problems with using the backtick ` character to move to marks. If I do ma to set a mark into 'a' and then do 'a (a single quote not a backtick) everything works and the cursor is moved to the first non-blank on the marked line. However if I try `a I get an error saying E78: Unknown mark. What am I missing? Thanks, Martin -- You received this message from the vim_use maillist. Do not top-post!

Usually you get 'E20: Mark not set' when a mark is not set, and your error message if you use some character which actually cannot be a mark. So that suggests you are not actually typing a after the backtick, but somehow typing some other letter/symbol. Have you accidentally neglected to release a shift key, or is your keyboard layout treating ` as a dead key and producing an accented character or something?

It would probably help to know a bit more about your setup (operating system, windo manager, etc.). Ben. If Vim received the single à character (SMALL LATIN LETTER A WITH GRAVE) it wouldn't even know that a mark was asked for. The fact that the error is about a mark shows that Vim received either an apostrophe or a backtick; it's what comes just after that which wasn't the name of a mark. If you are on a unix-like OS, are backticks recognized when Vim sends them to the shell? For instance :!ls -l `which vim` should display the directory entry for your Vim executable. Or, in Insert mode, do you know how to type `a as two characters (backtick followed by lowercase latin a) with nothing in between? If you do, the exact same keystrokes in Normal mode ought to bring you to mark a. On my Belgian keyboard, the key I use to produce a backtick (AltGr with µ) is also a dead key: nothing is displayed immediately, if I type o immediately afterwards I get ò, if I want a backtick instead I have to use AltGr-µ followed by space (or followed by itself but that's slower).

(Like Tony, I think it's a bit odd that typing `a would produce something like `à which is somewhat what I suggested earlier, as it does appear Vim is receiving the backquote. But I think the fact that `a produces à is enough to strongly suggest the problem is related to this.) Ben. If hitting the dead-key twice produces the backtick, then inadvertently hitting it three times, or long enough to trigger the keyboard repeat mechanism, might produce `à when followed by a. So maybe the OP should just be extra careful to release the ` dead key quickly after each press? Or hit ` Space rather than ` ` in order to produce the spacing-grave (backtick) character?

I tried starting them all with: vim -u NONE -U NONE -N To see if it's a plugin problem. And the results is that it works fine in both terminal vims but fails in macvim. So it should have something to do with macvim. I will write a question in mac_vim mailinglist too linking to this thread.

I totally agree with you. Would be much more simpler if we could wrote
something like:
:echo 25*47
And the output was directly put in the current buffer in the cursor position.
The sequence redir 'something', type a command and then 'redir END' is
really to much to do when we need to be fast. To get the result of the
calculation above is much more easy just see the value in the command window
and write it by your hand in the buffer.
This is a feature that a miss in Vim/GVim for quite sometime.
you can insert the output of every VimL expression with
C-R=your-expression-goes-hereCR
while you are in insert mode. Your example would then be typed as
C-R=25*47CR
While this works for expressions (the followup question about
echo 25*47), it doesn't satisfy the OP's request for arbitrary
Ex commands. Assuming the commands to be executed don't include
redirs and there's not a redir already in process (that you don't
want to terminate), it could be wrapped in a function
function! Capture(excmds)
redir = s:results
exec a:excmds
redir END
return s:results
endfunction
You could then use the function in concert with the expression
register:
c-r=Capture('scriptnames')
(odd results if you don't have 'paste' set) in insert mode, or
you can use
c-r=Capture('scriptnames')crp
to paste it in normal mode. The command should also work with
multiple pipe-separated commands:
Capture('scriptnames|set')
Hope this helps,

My functions names do only contains letters, digits and underscores.
If I've understood you well, I can now unify all my functions and
change s: --- SID
change function! --- fun!
change endfunction! -- endfun!
Is that correct?
1. Yes (for functions only).
2. Yes (though I would prefer to change fun! - function!, not the opposite).
3. Yes (both will throw E477 error because `endfunction' does not accept bang.
You may even change this to, for example, `call!' for this reason).
and can I change also this:
s/\\d\\{2,}/\\=s:MyFunctionName(submatch(0))/g
in:
s/\\d\\{2,}/\\=SIDMyFunctionName(submatch(0))/g
No (first will replace string `\d\{2,}' with `\=s:MyFunctionName(submatch(0))',
second will replace it with `\=SIDMyFunctionName(submatch(0))'. You should
half the number of backslashes to make it mean the same).

Re: pdf ref search
Thanks Tim, that actually works great. Of course, now I want more... so if you are up for more read on. Basically the format for a PDF reference is: N N R where N is an integer and R is literal. So typically you will see something like a PDF Name (which is prefixed with a /), then a reference to an object reference value for that name. For example 5 0 obj /Type /Catalog /Pages 1 0 R /Outlines 19 0 R /PageMode /UseOutlines /Metadata 3 0 R ... 19 0 obj etc.. The reference 19 0 R points to a PDF object declaration somewhere in the file like 19 0 obj. So, right now (thanks to your help) I can put my cursor over the 19 in the /Outlines reference value, hit F4 and navigate directly to the 19 0 obj. Now... it would be even better if I didn't have to put the cursor on the id number itself, just the line it's on. I suppose that would mean navigating to the first reference (\d+\s\d+\sR) and then executing the object search which you just provided. If you want an example of this sort of text, just open any PDF file in Vim and look for /Outlines or /Catalog. BTW... just noticing that characters classes (like \d for digits) don't seem to work in regular Vim / searches, is that really the case? Thanks!

Re: Remove duplicate lines based on match with 1 column
I know you said you want to do this within Vim, but on Unix, awk is
really ideal for this sort of task. If you pipe your data through the
following command, only the first line containing each IP address will
be passed through to the output:
awk '{if (ip[$6] == ) print; ip[$6] = 1}'
If you have the file open in a Vim buffer and want to filter it
in-place, you can do so with Vim's `!` command:
:%!awk '{if(ip[$6]==)print;ip[$6]=1}'
I removed the extraneous spaces to save keystrokes, but you could leave
them in to aid readability if you prefer. The `%` tells Vim to filter
the entire file; you could substitute any other valid range in order to
filter just part of the file.
There's probably a way to do the same thing using only Vim's built-in
functionality, but I often find it easier and more elegant to pipe text
from Vim through some assortment of Unix's powerful text processing
tools using `!`.
See `:help :range!` for more info on the Vim filter command.

I would like to delete records with identical IPs, i.e. records which
have a match in the 6th field.
[snip]
However, I'd really like to learn a way, within vim, to
accomplish this on the complete file, including the date /
time stamps.
[snip]
:sort /^.*M /
Thanks mcc, but I'm not so sure. I can sort your way, or by (something
like) sort -nk6,6 to just sort on the 6th field, but I still have the
problem of deleting lines which only match on the 6th field. Maybe I
missed something about your proposal.
To expand on Meino's suggestion, it sounds like you want this
two-shot:
:sort /M/
:g/\(M \d\+\%(\.\d\+\)\{3}\)\n.*\1$/d
The first one pulls together all the like-IP-addresses. The
second one finds all the lines where the subsequent line has the
same IP address, and deletes the first one.
The unmentioned variable is the time-stamp aspect: you don't say
whether you want to keep the oldest date or the most recent date.
Because they have text-months (rather than numeric months),
sorting them yields weird/useless results, so the date you get is
semi-arbitrary. If the initial file is sorted already by date, I
believe Vim's :sort is stable-ish (in :help :sort, search
forward for the word stable to read the caveat on it), so it
will keep them in the original order. My :g command looks for
lines deletes the first one which, in this case, is the the
earlier/oldest.
Hope that helps,
-tim
PS: please forgive the semi-sloppy IP regexp as it allows invalid
addresses like 12345.6789.0.12345678 but better to handle
them safely, than to error out because of faulty logging :)

I would like to delete records with identical IPs, i.e. records which
have a match in the 6th field.
[snip]
However, I'd really like to learn a way, within vim, to
accomplish this on the complete file, including the date /
time stamps.
[snip]
:sort /^.*M /
Thanks mcc, but I'm not so sure. I can sort your way, or by (something
like) sort -nk6,6 to just sort on the 6th field, but I still have the
problem of deleting lines which only match on the 6th field. Maybe I
missed something about your proposal.
To expand on Meino's suggestion, it sounds like you want this
two-shot:
:sort /M/
:g/\(M \d\+\%(\.\d\+\)\{3}\)\n.*\1$/d
The first one pulls together all the like-IP-addresses. The
second one finds all the lines where the subsequent line has the
same IP address, and deletes the first one.
The unmentioned variable is the time-stamp aspect: you don't say
whether you want to keep the oldest date or the most recent date.
Because they have text-months (rather than numeric months),
sorting them yields weird/useless results, so the date you get is
semi-arbitrary. If the initial file is sorted already by date, I
believe Vim's :sort is stable-ish (in :help :sort, search
forward for the word stable to read the caveat on it), so it
will keep them in the original order. My :g command looks for
lines deletes the first one which, in this case, is the the
earlier/oldest.
Hope that helps,
-tim
PS: please forgive the semi-sloppy IP regexp as it allows invalid
addresses like 12345.6789.0.12345678 but better to handle
them safely, than to error out because of faulty logging :)
Many thanks to both Taylor and Tim for these solutions. I haven't yet
tried them but have great confidence!
Taylor: I have no problem with using awk, either within or outside
vim, so will be happy to check out your filter.
Tim: yes, it's that second step using the global command which I
didn't know how to construct.
Thank you both again,
John

searching and cursor postion
I'm trying to figure out how the correct command to search for a string and have the cursor positioned at the end(or beginning) of that string. From the documentation, it seems to me this should work: /string/e But when I try that I get the message: E481: No range allowed. Can someone show me the error in my ways?

Six fields, the sixth being an IP address.
I would like to delete records with identical IPs, i.e. records which
have a match in the 6th field.
I know how to do simple things -- so I deleted the 2nd through 5th
fields, then sorted and uniq'd the file. However, I'd really like to
learn a way, within vim, to accomplish this on the complete file,
including the date / time stamps.
I think you'll have to craft a little function for that. Assuming you
want to keep only the first occurence of an IP, the following looks like
it does what you want:
fun! Filter() range
let l:line = a:firstline
let l:lastline = a:lastline
let l:ip = {}
while l:line = l:lastline
let l:fields = split(getline(l:line))
if has_key(l:ip, l:fields[5])
exe l:line . 'delete'
let l:lastline -= 1
else
let l:ip[l:fields[5]] = l:line
let l:line += 1
endif
endwhile
endfun
Use like so:
:%call Filter()
And by the way, since you said you use linux, there are myriads of tools
that can help you do this succintly and elegantly outside of vim. One
example:

stderr issue with makeprg
Hi All, I've just updated to 7.3.161 (via Mercurial) and I have an issue where vim is no longer capturing gcc output in stderr (i.e. gcc's warnings and errors). I see them in the shell window as vim run's the gcc commands, however doing a :copen only displays the contents of stdout, not stderr. Has something changed in vim's behaviour, in that I need to set some option to capture stderr with makeprg? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
