Hi,
I have the following file segments. I want to concatenate all the
lines with their next lines, except that it ends with "}}". I want to
use the pattern "\(}}\)[EMAIL PROTECTED]". It seems not working.
Would you please help me to figure out how to match the lineend
without "}}"?
This problem is one that LogiPat can help with!
(see http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=1290
or http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs, see
"LogiPat")
First, let's construct a pattern that matches all lines that don't end
with }}:
:echo LogiPat('!"}}$"')
^\%(\%(}}$\)[EMAIL PROTECTED])*$
Now, that has a bit more than is necessary, but it does work. I'm not
sure what
you want with that trailing '^' -- was that supposed to mean
beginning-of-line?
It isn't necessary if that's the case.
So, to do what you ask with LogiPat's result:
:g/^\%(\%(}}$\)[EMAIL PROTECTED])*$/j
