I thought you were saying "3cgn" or "c3gn" would only edit the third occurrence, which I could see being useful and not necessarily surprising. But then I experimented and you're saying "3." doesn't do the same thing as "...". I agree that's unexpected and not very useful. But it's actually consistent with things like ">>". For example, ">>2." does not do what I'd expect, either; I need to do ">>..". -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
