Hi Suppose,

I have below data :

  describe ".employee_learning" do

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

    let(:user1) { FactoryGirl.create(:user, gender: 'f') }

  end

Only first line I wrote.. then I did Shift + v, then yanked and then 7p. These many action created the above all similar lines. Now I am looking for a trick, so that I can make all user1(s), in one shot like user1-user7. Hope I am able tell you people about my expectation :-) Is this really possible ? or manually *r* command is the only trick to replace each 1 to 2,3,4 increasing order ?

 

There are many ways you can do this.

function! Increment()

let g:S=g:S+1

return g:S

endfunction

" For example, if you had a file with text like this: "(8 hours)"

" and you want to sum up the number of hours you can do the following:

:let g:S=0 "In global variable S we later find the result

" Then perform a substitute command:

" :%s/(user\zs1)/\=Increment(submatch(0))/g

The above is untested.

The way I usually do this is just with some of the very useful plugins around though.

I use this one mainly:

" VisInc - Visually Increment numbers/dates/days

" http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=670

Visually select the 1 for as many lines as you want (using CTRL-V) and hit

:I

Which is far easier than the above.

HTH,

David
