Hello,
I have a file where I have words like X1, X2, ..., X16, X17, X18,
I want to find out occurences of words containing a number greater
than, say, 17. So basically, I want to find X18, X19, X20, etc. How
can I do this in vim? In other words, can we use arithmetic
expressions in search

expression. You would have to do it manually, something like

Thanks for the reply. But it may not always be simple like you showed
above. For example, if I wanted to only search for those numbers that
are divisible by 7. If such a feature

Normally you do the following: create a regular expression
that is able to find all numbers and then write additional
code which will filter the results of the first search so that
only numbers divisible by 7 are left.
I must say that there are times I've
