Re: search file for text in reg ?

Is the content of the register literal text or a regular expression?
If it's a regular expression (or doesn't have any regex metachars in
it), you can use
:let @/=@a
where "@a" is the register in question. You can then use n/N to
navigate forward/backward.
If it's literal text that might contain regexp metachars, you have to
escape them:
:let @/=escape(@a, '.*\\$^')
(adjust the set of escaped characters accordingly; I just grabbed a
few I knew to be problematic)

This looks like a job for the :s[ubstitute] command (see ":help :s"
and ":help pattern-overview"). Note that Vim patterns are similar to,
but subtly different from, those used by Perl, grep, less, etc. For
option 4, just replace "-from " by "-from abc.abc_core." by means of
:%s/-from /\0abc\.abc_core\./g
The ending /g is only necessary if there can be more than one
replacement per line. In addition, insert ^ before -from if it must be
at the start of a line.
For the others, the same with /gc at the end instead of /g (or /c
instead of nothing) will let you answer y or n for each replacement.
Or slightly more complex patterns will let you specify more in detail
what to replace by what.
After studying the two help topics mentioned above, and what comes
around them, you should be able to (a) understand what my example
above is doing and how, and (b) how to make it more selective.
Best regards,
Tony.

"Vim without Cream" used to be one of the best. If you can't find
precompiled Vim executables for Windows, you can as a last resort
compile your own. It is not really hard once you get the hang of it,
and it affords you full freedom of which features to include or omit.
In addition to the (formerly Cygwin and) MinGW compiler described in
the last link below (note 4), MS Visual Studio (see note 3) has been
said to work well for compiling Vim on Windows, and there are others,
see the "Microsoft Windows" column under Note 2 below.

1. https://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Getting_the_Vim_source_with_Mercurial
