Dear Vim experts, consider the following line
glm::something mlg::else The goal is to match the words before and including the double colons. Of course /\([a-zA-Z]\+::\) does the job. But the question arose, if /\<.\+:: could be restricted to match glm::something and not glm::something mlg:: - So I guess my question is, is there a way to tell vim to please not extend the matched region to be as large as possible, but e.g. take the smallest possible match? Of course I browsed the documentation and asked the most popular search machine. I might have overlooked the answer. Help will be much appreciated. Have a pleasant day and Cheers! -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
