This global command searches for "beep" anywhere in a line of a file and copies it to register a.
The use of uppercase "A" appends it to register a rather than overwriting. :g/.*beep.*/normal "Ayy This works fine unless there is already something in register a. Is there a simple way to clear a register before issuing this global command? -- Bill Muench Santa Cruz, California --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
