I have been looking around for a, "start new thread" button but cant seem to find it (which is my first question). My real question is, how do I delete a word in a vim file from the editor command? What I want to do is go to a specific line (36) and delete 3 words after my cursor
i.e :36 | 3dw
error: "3dw" is not a command. Ive tried ":d" this deletes teh whole line which is not what I want.
I need to chop of the top 30ish lines of several log files until a line starting with "Initialization completed."The trouble is that it's not always the same amount of lines that need to be deleted, and they don't always contain the same information, which is why I would need to delete everything priorhe line starting with "Initialization completed."Right now I have a little script I wrote based on looping each file through several "grep -v" commands with each known pattern of lines I want to ignore, but it is tedious and I have to inspect each file afterwards to make sure nothing is left from above "Initialization completed
View 3 Replies View RelatedI want to know that how can i search for a word in a file and then comment it or delete it. I know this command works.
sed 's/word/#word/'g inputfile > outputfile
But the lines in my input file are as under:
zone "abc.com" { ---- This line can be comment
type master; ----- This line repeat again and again in the file
file "abc.txt";
allow-query { any; }; -This line repeat again and again in the file
};
I want to know how can i comment a certain zone.
Want to search for ~ and delete it as well as to append the entire line to the above line. For Ex:

~away, the "other" body of water varies ~blackNatural gas leaching.
IT MUST LOOK LIKE:

View 13 Replies View RelatedWhen I highlight a word then delete it, the word is erased as expected. But when I highlight a word and begin typing a word to replace it (instead of deleting or hitting backspace), the first letter of the unwanted word does not erase... so I am required to watch my text very closely when editing.
For example: I'll type the word "fungus" and then highlight it and type the replacement word "mold" and when I look at the text, the word is "fmold". Am I the only one with this odd situation?

I need to change this number in the file to be correct, i.e. each time the number is 9 it needs to be 1, each time it is 233 it needs to be 2, etc...
