Good Morning.

Vim 7.3.1-421 Windows 7 64-bit.

I want to create a command mode mapping which will do a substitution
on what is already typed in.
I am just wondering how to get access to the command line?

My searches through the help which was based on cmap and mapmode-c
didn't reveal anything I could use.

Thanks,
Dave

    :h getcmdline()
    :h c_CTRL-\_e
    :h c_CTRL-R_=
    :h getcmdpos()
    :h setcmdpos()

I've used all of the above in conomode.vim:

(maybe not very readable code, but should be enough to get some
inspiration :-)


Thanks Andy.

I regularly use the MRU plugin with it's tab completion.

I will often use it to get close to a file I want to edit (absolute path) and then need to change :MRU to :e and finish editing the command line and edit the file.

So, this cmap will do what I want <C-e> for "e"dit:
cmap <C-e> <C-\>esubstitute(getcmdline(), '^MRU\>', 'e', '')<CR>

Dave
