Re: detecting first and last line of the current paragraph

Thanks a lot for all your comments!
For this particular purpose, the visual way is perfect.
However, I am still interested in the regex way, because that will allow me to do
other things with the paragraph and not only adding a char at the beginning.

Note that you can do a lot with the visual selection, too, and Ex
commands with a range of '<,'> which means from the start to the end of
the visual selection. For instance, to do a substitution in the current
paragraph:

:normal vip
:'<,'>s/foo/bar

Very interesting.
I need to study about that, since I guess is not as easy as just ...

function Blah()
    :normal vip
    :'<,'>s/foo/bar
endfunction
