vim fine replace in current line code example
Example: how to search replace in vim
-- How to search-replace (substitute) in vim --
:(RANGE)s/(SEARCH)/(REPLACE)/(GC)
(RANGE) can be
- Blank for just current line
- "Start, Stop" for line range, e.g. "4,8"
- "%" for whole file
(SEARCH) can be simple text or a regex (see source for details)
(REPLACE) should be obvious...
(GC)
- Appending "g" replaces all occurances, not just the first
- Appending "c" allows vim to confirm each replacement
They can be used together, separate, or not at all
