Are you able to inspect the file with a hex editor (or use ":r !xxd <file name>") and determine whether there are any Unique bytes that mark end of line? Or, did all the line endings end up a space? How long is a typical line which contains all the statements? Does each statement have a comment? If so, something might be done with a substitute. That would be easier if each instruction had an identifiable form. Does each consist of uppercase letters with "32" at the end? If so, try: :%s/ \ze\u\u\+32\>/\r /g John -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
