Hi, Can you do math in Vim? Can you do subtractions?
I have a srt file where I want to subtract 7 from all the seconds in the file. So this: +------------------------------------+ 24 00:07:55,641 --> 00:07:58,393 You can't do that to us! We'll tell you a secret. 25 00:07:58,603 --> 00:07:59,769 A secret? Who by? +------------------------------------+ becomes: +------------------------------------+ 24 00:07:48,641 --> 00:07:51,393 You can't do that to us! We'll tell you a secret. 25 00:07:51,603 --> 00:07:52,769 A secret? Who by? +------------------------------------+ The changes in this are: (55 becomes 48) (58 becomes 51) (59 becomes 52) Meaning: - search for the lines with --> - search for the number before the first , (comma) - subtract that number with 7 - search for the number before the second , (comma) - subtract that number with 7 I don't know if vim can subtract it also to negative numbers? In case you have this: +------------------------------------+ 27 00:08:01,898 --> 00:08:04,316 She's visiting-- 28 00:08:04,525 --> 00:08:07,277 Who wants to know about her? +------------------------------------+ becomes: +------------------------------------+ 27 00:08:-06,898 --> 00:08:-03,316 She's visiting-- 28 00:08:-03,525 --> 00:08:00,277 Who wants to know about her? +------------------------------------+ The changes in this are: (01 becomes -06) (04 becomes -03) (07 becomes 00) Although not correct for srt syntax, these are manual fixable .
