Hello,
I am using VIM (version 7.1) on a SUN (UNIX) machine.
The following command works when I type it interactively
but fails when I keep it in a script and use vim -s option.
The command is:
:g/^{\s*$/normal ^maf{%mb:'a,'bs/,//g/^M
[Please note that the ^M is actually Cntrl-M or "Enter" key
which I got by typing Cntrl-V <Return>]
The above command typed interactively works perfectly.
All the command is trying to do is delete all the commas
within all the "{}" blocks of a given file. Other commas have to
be kept. Just commas with in the "{}" blocks need to be
deleted.
When I store the above command in a script file, and use
vim -s <script> <datafile>
command, it does not do anything. It just searches for the
grepped pattern. That is all.
Also, is there any way to run VIM scripts in a non-interactive
or batch mode. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Uday K2
