Question : how to search replace in vim
Answered by : helpful-hummingbird-8ku39n9855ao
-- 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 allSource : https://www.linux.com/training-tutorials/vim-tips-basics-search-and-replace/ | Last Update : Wed, 01 Apr 20
