I'm curious which vim GUIs deal with this in a sane way. MacVim supplies this standard Find & Replace window - https://www.dropbox.com/s/6lxhu4bf1wu8ifo/Screenshot%202014-08-16%2014.10.33.png - I doubt that anyone clicking "Replace All" expects it to only replace the first occurrence on each line when gdefault is set. And with gdefault set, there's no way to replace all occurrences of a word via that UI (other than by repeatedly clicking "Replace All", which might have unintended consequences depending on what you're replacing with what). -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
