Thank you very much, I'll use that.
I'm currently reading the Vim docs by editing them inside Vim, it's a
good way for me to process them better.
However, to speed things up, I was wondering if anyone could tip me
off about a few functionalities.
At the beginning of a paragraph which has been separated mid-sentence onto
separate lines, how might I automate the process of calling CTRL-J until
all the separated lines in the paragraph have been combined into one line?
Will Vim be able to call CTRL-J until a condition is met, for example, that
the single line being built ends in a sentence (a period), or until the
next line is a blank newline?
Then, how might I automate the process of entering N newlines between every
sentence? I.e., automating pressing ), i, enter a few times, then escape,
for multiple sentences? I could create a shortcut to execute these commands
and call it myself, or it could also repeat until the conditions above. How
would I do either?
Also, how do I go back to where the cursor previously was, in case I
accidentally move it?
Thanks very much,
Julius
