Vim removes line endings when a file is read, so there may not be any CR in the buffer that is displayed. Search for \n to find what Vim has detected as a line ending. To convert from one line ending type to another, see: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/File_format For testing, you can enter insert mode and type Ctrl-V Enter (or Ctrl-Q Enter if you have mapped Ctrl-V to paste). That will insert a CR displayed as ^M (Ctrl-M = 13 = CR). Searching for \r will find it. John -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
