Hi,

I would like to delete all end of lines (\n) inside a given pattern that runs through a text. The pattern is like this:

<PubmedArticle>
text1 \n
text2 \n
text3 \n
text4 \n
text5 \n
text6 \n
... \n
<PubmedArticle>

Does
 :%s/<PubmedArticle>\_.\{-}\ze<PubmedArticle>/<PubmedArticle>\r/g
do what you want?

I suggest that you read
 :help regexp
