<Uranus> hi
<Uranus> is there a way in which I can change the 'wrappers' of a certain string globally?
<Uranus> let me try to explain what I want
<solsTiCe> how to reload a file ?
<Uranus> something like :%s/String \d \D*<br \/>/<h4>String \d \D*<\/h4>/g
<Uranus> only that would replace my variable digit and variable amount and type of text by d and D*
<Uranus> so I would like to use something like &, only that it skips part of the contents of &
<Uranus> and what should I use in a search command when searching for a newline?
<Uranus> hm sorry I found it :P
<setog3> thx strull
<jamessan> solsTiCe: ":e"

<phyrster> I have a file which goes like this:
<phyrster> # <?xml version="1.0"?>
<phyrster> # <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<phyrster> each line starts with a number and a dot. for example 1. 2.
<phyrster> I want to delete all the starting number and the dot.
<jamessan> :%s/^\d\+\.//
<dindinx> :%s/^[0-9]\+\.//
<phyrster> I tried this command: %s/^[1-100]\.//g but only 1 are deleted
<jamessan> phyrster: that character cl*** says "match any number in the range 1-1 and any 0"
<jamessan> phyrster: [] matches a single character, not a string
<phyrster> jamessan: the file is like this:
<phyrster> 2. <!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<phyrster> 3. <fontconfig>
<jamessan> ok. I already gave you the command to use that will do what you want
<phyrster> jamessan: I got a pattern not found
<jamessan> so, you have leading spaces, probably
<jamessan> :%s/^\s*\d\+\.//
<jamessan> or if you don't want to remove the spaces:
<jamessan> :%s/^\s*\zs\d\+\.//
<phyrster> ok. let me try
<phyrster> jamessan: thank you so much.
<jamessan> welcome
<perlover> is there a way to access VIM plugin through sftp?

<Axioplase> Is it possible to fold text? I mean, *anything*... Cause I'm doing zf on selected comments in my code, but it says "no no no! you can't do that!"
<jamessan> Axioplase: sure, ":set fdm=marker" and specify the fold markers you want to use. then you can fold anything in between those markers
<scruffy> hal8: how about clicking on any of the links. no problems?
<hal8> scruffy: fine

<myryp> hi, i have set noexpandtab in my .vimrc, but it dosn't work. Other options in .vimrc work ok, but this one i need to type manualy. Do you know why?
<scruffy> what is the help keyword to learn about referencing matches from :s// ?
<ciaranm> sub-replace-special iirc
<scruffy> ciaranm: that's it, thanks
<strull> myryp: what gives :verb set et? (Note the ?)
<myryp> it says that expandtab is enable
<myryp> is it possible that indent script for ocaml override my config?
<strull> probably
<myryp> so, is it possible to set noexpandtab automaticaly after indent script?
<jamessan> create ~/.vim/after/indent/ocaml.vim and add "set noexpandtab"
<myryp> jamssan: thx!
<oelewapperke> how do I change vim's keyboard mapping for export TERM="screen" ?
<oelewapperke> ie I would like to map backspace to the default (which is as far as I'm concerned CTRL-? instead of CTRL-H)
<oelewapperke> anyone ?
<shruggar> why not change that in your screen config?
<oelewapperke> because I also use programs that do not have their own keymaps
<kg-> :imap ^? <BS>
<kg-> get ^? by pressing ctrl-V, then backspace
<shruggar> ***uming you havent remapped ctrl-v
<kg-> i always remap ctrl-V to askjadkwerfh;wjelkfj3
<kg-> that seems like a great idea!
<shruggar> I remap it to.. paste
<ciaranm> you ****
<cathper> I don't write paste that often ...
<[set]> is there a way i can type in a line number to go to?
<[set]> i want to go to a specific line in vim

<Fletch> How does ony find and/or replace in vim?
<Industrial> :s///
<Industrial> searching is just /
<Industrial> and searchgin backwards is ?
<Industrial> theres also an option, :set hlsearch
<Fletch> How about if a / is in the search criteria?
<Industrial> it will highlight your search pattern
<Industrial> \/
<Industrial> Fletch: theres alot of escaping in vim regexes
<Industrial> \(this\|or\|this\)
<Industrial> for example
<ipkiss> Industrial: not necessarily, if you use magic or very-magic regular expressions
<Industrial> ipkiss: i knwo
<Industrial> raise your god

<L_O_U> unable to find a tag even if present in the tags file. Any ideas ?
<strull> what is your tags file and what gives :set tags ?
<L_O_U> the tags file is ../tags and :set tags gives ../tags !
<L_O_U> Could have somthing to do with the ctags version ?
<strull> no
