Hi,
I need to copy text up to first blank space in the line.
Here my cursor is atm i need to copy upto first blank i.e my_number=12345.6789% to a register.similarly we go for second line here if cursor is at fthen i need first.blank_space to some other register.
Shift + k is used to open the man page under the cursor. if you want to execute the command instead of opening the man page use the following functions.
"This function used to get the current cursor word and execute that command
"This function used to get the current cursor line and execute that command Note:
<cword> is replaced with the word under the cursor (like |star|)
<cWORD> is replaced with the WORD under the cursor (see WORD|)

Be very careful when you quit with editing some file. I use the following ...
But ones one little dot came between ...
Whot does it mean? It saves only the line where the cursor was at that moment.
That time I lost more than 12000 lines and about 2 hours and a half work. Only because a finger slides over a dot.

Great point, but iit should only allow it if you force a write with:
But it's easily done, especially if saving a read-only file, where you have to use ! anyway.
Hi,
I am using VIM 7.1 version on my Ubuntu 8.04 (hardy heron). I am irritated to see the auto matching cursor whenever it comes across parantheses, brackets and braces while editing. I used ':set noshowmatch', but no use. What other options are available for me?
I found a decent guide of VI basic tricks. This guide does expect you to have a decent understanding of VI. It does not go over very much beginner related.

Hello there,
Is there anyway to make the tar utility print the contents of the files inside it (not list the files, but rather their contents) sequentially from the command line?
What I ultimately would like to do is to have a way of printing the contents of each file in the tar archive... (2 Replies)
