Re: a question about subsitution....

Thanks Max and Chip, I didn't realis that \ and \ were used to denote the beginning and end of the word and therefore they could be used separately, I always just thought of them as a way of getting an exact match, which I suppose is almost the same thing, however, I still don't understand why

Shortest Pattern Match

Hi all, I believe vim carries out greedy pattern matching, i.e. the longest pattern found will be used. Is there a way of performing shortest matching ? As an example, I have the following text: fe fi fo united kingdom fe fi fo 0911 209 30 30 and I want to delete everything up to the word

Re: Remapping - how to get the count

Why not just use C-U in the mapping (after the : ) to clear the command line, then use v:count or v:count1 instead of the second argument? Because they're not in my active vimming vocabulary... :) Yes, using v:count/v:count1 is a much cleaner more understandable way to do it. -tim
