Re: regex variable

2013/7/18 shawn wilson <ag4ve.us@gmail.com>

Is there a way of using a variable in a regex?

I'm constantly looking for the first octet of IP addresses, so I do:
/[^0-9\.]10\.

What I've been doing is hitting / and up arrow and then edit but if I
could store [^0-9\.] in something easily accessed, that would save
some time.

Fortunately :)

for example:

:%s/\([^0-9\.]\)10\./\1/g

will only leave the first octet of IP addresses.

Regards.
