What I would like to do is following: Do a visual selection in my text
Select a menu entry from my gvim menu which would start a python script. This script should get the active selection and replace it with a new string. For the examples case let's assume I want to replace all 'a' characters with 'A' characters. With vim commands I would try to do something like: :'<,'>s/a/A # this works, but it would always assume a 'V' slection and not a 'v' # # or Ctrl-v' selection for external shell commands I could do :'<,'>!sed 's/a/A/g' Now my question would be how to do this with python scripting. The reason is, that python scripting, can keep variable states accross commands and that it could access all open buffers, etc. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
