Top Forums UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users Vi remove line range containing a string Post 302954314 by Don Cragun on Monday 7th of September 2015 02:49:17 AM

The single quotes are used to reference marks set with the k command. To delete lines with line numbers 3560 through 3572 (inclusive) that contain the string gcc, use the vi command:
Code:
:3560,3572/gcc/d

The post you referenced tried to use quotes instead of CODE tags to delimit the code to type into vi, but the colon should have been inside the quotes instead of outside (and using quotes instead of CODE tags confused you). I hope this explanation clears things up for you.

NAME
snap2tzx - Convert ZX Spectrum snapshot to .tzx tape images SYNOPSIS
snap2tzx [-1 string] [-2 string] [-b colour] [-g string] [-l string] [-o filename] [-r] [-s speed] [-v] [-$ filename] snapshot DESCRIPTION
snap2tzx converts a ZX Spectrum snapshot into a .tzx tape image. OPTIONS
-1 string causes string (which has a maximum of 32 characters) to be shown while loading. -2 string causes string (maximum 32 characters) to also be shown while loading. -b colour specifies the border colour while loading. -g string causes string (maximum 32 characters) to be used as the game name while loading. -l string causes string (maximum 8 characters) to be used as the BASIC filename in the loader. -o filename causes the output to be sent to filename. -r causes the final line of attribute data in the loading screen to be bright. -s speed specifies the speed of the loader; available values for speed are 0 (1500 bps), 1 (2250 bps), 2 (3000 bps) and 3 (6000 bps). -v specifies verbose output. -$ filename specifies that the ZX Spectrum screen stored in filename should be used as the loading screen. snapshot specifies the snapshot (in a format supported by libspectrum(3)) to be converted. In any string parameter, the tilde (~) will be converted into a copyright symbol. BUGS
