Okay. That seems odd, but you do your own thing.

Can you provide an example?

I'd be inclined to try a regular expression like the following.

:%s/<a href=\(.\{-1,}\)>/<a href=\1 target="_blank">/g

Use a non-greedy wildcard match to find an anchor tag (assuming it
starts with href) and append the target="_blank" to the end.

That's annoying, especially if you have a LOT of anchor tags to change.
