I usually just use ":r b.txt" while editing a.txt.

This is the point you go to the man page for awk and look at how RS and ORS are used.

I'm not sure if this will work for you, but check out the Firebug addon. The webpage says:
"You can edit, debug, and monitor CSS, HTML, and JavaScript live in any web page..." (emphasis mine.) ...

Take a look at the rsync man page. Maybe you could simplify your life and use the following:
--files-from=FILE read list of source-file names from FILE

Just an idea. Not sure if it's...

What have you tried so far?

If you are building the first file with the names in it just so you can extract the filenames, then you could skip that step with this:

me@mine:~$ find ./foo -type f -exec basename {} \;

# This...

Here's an example of dumping the symbols from an object file (hello world in foo.c -> foo.o):

me@mine:~$ objdump -t foo.o

foo.o: file format elf32-i386

Please indicate how you're defining "similarity"

If you wanted to automate the process, stick the commands into a file and have vim make the changes using the ex mode.

For example:

commandFile:
:% s/\(.*\) \(.*\)/\2 \1/g
:1,$ print <-- not...

The old split sort join trick. Nice. Thanks.

How about using something like this to extract all paragraphs with the !'s until a blank line or the next line that starts with a "!"?

sed -n '/^!!![^!]/,/[^$|^!]/p' # !!!
sed -n...

I responded to your question but I included a link, so I guess it's being held up for administrator review. Anyway, I've tried "sort" and some awk, but still no joy.

I've studied the sort docs and tried many combinations without success.

I'm sure I could muddle my way through with a...

infile:
z y x
c b a

desired output:
x y z
a b c

I don't want to sort the lines into this:
a b c
x y z

nor this:
c b a
z y x

The number of fields per line and number of lines is...

awk '{print $1,$2,$3,$4"]"}' inputfilename > outputfilename

Well my assumptions on what you were trying to do were bad, so my awk solution didn't pan out for me. However I gave it a shot with a really short python script, and I think I may have what you need....

Two things:

I've never used join, so you're probably going to get a better answer from someone else.

I didn't find the problem statement very clear, and looking at the data didn't help much. It...

I'm not a vim expert, but you should look in your ~/.vimrc (if you have one) for the following line:

filetype plugin indent on

That's dependent on if your version of vim was compiled with...
