While there may be a way, using registers, simple is also attractive, I think. I just use '/' <up-arrow> to retrieve the regex, highlight it with the mouse, whack <escape> to clear the line, then middle-button-paste it into the new command as it is entered. That way I don't have to remember any of those funny registers. (Though that seemed easy enough, decades ago.) Erik -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
