I am puzzled by a slightly more complicated version:
how to match a '%' character following the 2nd occurrence of home?

All,
What I want is similar to evaluating a region in emacs. I want to be
able to make a selection of vim code, and then execute it.
:source only takes files.
As for :exe, I have tried this: :exe getreg(''), and found it to be
unreliable.
Anyone have ideas?

Fantastic.
Thanks.

All,
Recently I was appreciating the beauty of using pumvisible() to setup
all kinds of mappings for the completion menu (ex. enter to do c-y).
I noticed when messing around with all of that, that space actually
exits the menu. Is this the desired behavior? Sometimes I am doing line

The tip shows you how to make the completion popup menu in Vim work
exactly like in IDEs. Meaning, you can just launch the menu whenever you
want,

I am trying to keep track of the number of buffers in the buffer list.
I'm doing this with the following code:

I decided to make a mapping that simply hits down whenever the popup
menu comes up. This is to make the popup behavior work more like in
IDEs, where the user can just select the nearest completion item at any
moment by hitting enter (c-y does this in Vim).
Here are two mappings I tried to
I would also love a flicker-less popup menu. I use the completion
excessively, since I've found it makes coding faster and less error
prone. I noticed the menu only flickers in some cases.

All,
It bothers me how when switching between tabs (gt) or switching between
buffers (:bn, :bp), sometimes a buffer will end up being
shifted/scrolled up/down within its window.
For the occasions that I want to shift the buffer I have keys like zz
to do this manually. I don't want this to happen
Great.
Yeah it always bothered me that there's no way to monitor every keypress
unless you map every key, which is quite ugly.

I'm curious to know peoples' opinions on this matter, especially Bram,
since he's back.
The issue is about whether the completion popup menu should disappear
when the user hits backspace all the way back to the initial
pre-completed state. Right now, the popup window disappears.

Is there an elegant way of checking if the current window is a command
line window other than seeing if the buffer name is command-line ?

Nikos,
The one line :%s way that was posted before is the truly elegant way of
solving this problem. However, I found that macros are especially
appropriate in this case. I was able to execute the whole task in 15
seconds by recording a macro for the first line, and then playing it
back 26 times.

Yes... I, Matt, who recommended the tab mappings, do no advise mapping
tab this way for command line because of the lack of completion.
However, you can do a ctrl-d for a kind of completion.
