Nonetheless: if after looking at what awk can do, and it seems that vim is still the way to go: * use vim to generate a file script * use your script and run that file script (using . scriptname so the variables are in the environment). * I'm assuming by "kernel variable" you actually mean "environment variable". If you really mean a kernel variable, such as may be found occasionally in files such as /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid, this would be a dangerous approach until you're absolutely certain that things are working correctly.

Ok, I understand, but I'm an amateur in Vim implementation. Can you help me? How can I to implement a function that go to, for example, line 123, position(column) 5, and that write the result into a kernel variable? I have no idea how do this. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.

Sure, make a custom function that takes parameters. Then call it from the shell like so: vim -c"call MyFunction(myParameter1, myParameter2)" You'll need to dynamically fill in the parameters, but that should be manageable.
