Commands take a range, but can do whatever they want with them. But this leakage has some interesting results. Thus, you can do weird things like :?pattern matching line #3?b :'bb " where you've dropped mark "b" on line #3 and it will open buffer #3. I'm not sure that's an *intended* behavior, even if it's an accidental side-effect. So it's *understandable*, just mostly useless ;-) -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
