A slightly less arcane way of commenting out multiple lines in vi: To comment out the current line, and the next 5: :,+5s/^/#/ explanation: :x,y -- specifies a line range. If x is omitted, start with the current line. If y is +z, interpret it as z lines below the current line. ^ -- regular expression matching the start of the line. s/foo/bar/ -- replace foo with bar. so s/^/#/ replaces the start of the line with the # character. You can undo this with :,+5s/^#// which replaces a # at the start of the line with the empty string (ie: deletes it). HTH. -- John. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
