I want to use a register's contents as the pattern for a substitute. I can't find registers mentioned in the help for :sub or pattern. Is there a way I can do it?
I'm trying to clean up some files that have been corrupted by being transferred between several hosts with different encodings and a buggy editor in the middle. It has become scattered with patterns of odd strings such as "甕" throughout. I figure it's easiest just to visual-yank the string to a register and use the register's contents as the pattern to substitute to a string of blanks.
