Use a string in the first place:
:let readonly_pat = '^0010'
or
:let readonly_pat = '^' . '0010'
or
:let i = 10 " not 0010 which is eight
:let readonly_pat = '^' . printf ('%4d', i)
Note that if you generate successive numbers as ... 0007, 0008, 0009,
0010, 0011, ... you'll have problems if you try to treat them later as
octal values, where you'll get ... 007, 010, 011, 010, 011, ...
Best regards,
Tony.
