Re: removing spaces from start of visual block

Andy,

One thing I don't understand...
I changed my previous regex in menu.vim with your regex.

The regex works fine when I use the command line but doesn't work
when I put the regex in menu.vim:

an <silent> 9900.80 &Ray-view.Align\ Column\ Selection
:'<,'>s/\%V\(\s*\)\(.\{-}\)\%(\%V\@!\|$\)/\2\1/ <CR>:let @/ = ""<CR>

This doesn't work, when I select the same block and use the menu.
Do you know what can be the problem?

Regards,
Rameo
