Hi,

I have a text file with many lines made like this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]@[EMAIL PROTECTED]@

And I'd like to have them splitted on "@" in newlines.

I have tried:

:%s/@/\n/g

but it does not work.
What am I missing?

\n in the second part of a substitution denotes the NUL character which
is used internally to represent end-of-line. To insert newlines you
have to use \r:

  :%s/@/\r/g

Regards,

Side-question: What line endings does \r insert? Or is this dependant on fileformat?
