Hi,
I have been using vim for years, I usually use @ macros. I have a question hard to explain. Assuming I have a text file ...
keyword: toggle CASE Retentive Case
keyword: TOGGLE case Retentive Case
keyword: togGLE CASE Retentive Case
...
And I want to toggle the case of some letters after ^keyword:.
Things I usually do is ...
/^keyword
then do the following keystrokes ...
9lv10l~0
And for the rest of file I can simply do ...
n.
to find the next match (n), and repeat the keystrokes (.)
Certainly, I can assign 9lv10l~0 to a macro. But what if I have 1,000+ lines like this, I would never want to use the macro for every line containing "^keyword". Is there anyway to search and replace in a single colon command? Like ...
:%s/^keyword/do_keystrokes/g
or
:%s/^keyword/do_a_macro/g
Thanks in advance,
