Quibbles? can't find a "run to end of file" for macros
Would
:,$norm @a
work for you? (obviously assuming that your macro was recorded
into register "a") Alternatively, if your macro processes more
than one line at a time, you could tweak it to
:,$g/pattern identifying start/norm @a
where "pattern identifying start" finds the lines on which the
macro should be run.
Lastly, I think if Vim encounters an error in macro-execution
(such as trying to move past the EOF), it stops not only the
macro in process but any subsequent runs, so you can issue some
ridiculous number of repetitions as your count as long as it
exceeds the number in the file:
999@a
(it might help to temporarily set 'nowrapscan' if your "go to the
next place to operate" is a search)
Hope that helps,
