Vim tricks
Qin normal mode to execute the last recorded macro.- Use
\{-}as non-greedy regex symbol. - Use
\_.to match any character including newline (multi-line). - Use
\Vpattern(very non-magic) to match the pattern literally, only^and$will have special meaning. - Classic negative/positive lookahead/behind (example in very magic):
| lookbehind | lookahead | |
|---|---|---|
| positive | (atom)@<= |
(atom)@= |
| negative | (atom)@<! |
(atom)@! |
- Use
\L(eg.:s/.*/\L&/) to lowercase the match; use\U(eg.:s/.*/\U&/) to uppercase it.
