I think the thing I most often have trouble with as a result of using Vim is when using other editors. Many times a string of text gets started with "i", or ends with :wq =o)Clearly I need to work on my vim chops as I'm missing out on all this. All I ever use it for is a quick config file edit.I was looking through lucky's cheatlink for a way to search & replace using wild characters (* or ?) Example:
It's probably there somewhere, but couldn't find anything.Could try something with regexp, such as 's/F\([0-9]\)/F(\1)/g' Of course, if you needed it more than 1 digit, you could use an additional +

Grrr, off the top of my head I can figure out the search. The replace string needs work (e.g., it's changing F1 to F(d)). Off to google...
:%s@F\d@F(\d)@g
This can't be too difficult.
Edit: Especially if you do what hats suggested. The digit range (\d) will work for [0-9].Next Page...
