Thanks for the reply, In the simplest terms i want to add an extra
argument to a function call(and floow the printf's formatting syntax)
also.
i.e
func(arg1, arg2, arg3)
to
func(arg1, arg2, arg3, arg4)
and edit arg2(which is a formatting string) to suite arg4 in all the
c files. Formatting string is similar to what supplied for printf()
regards,
Srini...

Well, please describe exactly what you want to do, and in particular,
how to determine which string(s) to modify (like "The Value of..." and
which not to (like "module name").
I suspect the problem can be solved with an ":args" command (such as
":args **/*.[ch]") followed by ":argdo
g/\<log(/s/something/something/g". Possibly wrapping it in a function if
things like __FUNCTION__ must be specified on each invocation.
Best regards,
Tony.
