Concats are separated by \&. \| separates branches. See :h regex. In general regex terms, | can be used thus: (expression made an atom by the parentheses)|(and another one) The whole regex will match if any of the branches do. > My whole pattern looks like this: > '.\n\zs\_^\_$\|[.!?][]]*\(\s\+\n\=\|\n\s*\)\(\s\+\n\)*\zs\S\|\_^\_$\n\s*\zs\S\|\%$' The low level of magic you're using obscures the underlying regex in an unreadable backslash storm. (:h magic : \v cleans up all that crap, and brings Vim very close to Posix regex conformity.) Hopefully my general advice will put you on the right track, though.
