Vim doesn't understand classes in []. That's why I'm asking to add it :-) Yakov Actually, Vim does understand classes in [] provided that they are expressed using the [:class:] symbolism. Thus, to specify space, tab, or punctuation you could use [[:blank:][:punct:]]. See about 30 lines below ":help /[]", and the example below the list of classes. Currently \s inside [] matches backslash or s as is explicitly noted under ":help /\]". I am wary of changing the meaning of existing constructs (even deprecated ones like this one), it could break existing scripts. Best regards, Tony.

Vim doesn't understand classes in []. But you can use [[:space:]] (but [:space:] is only and ). m.
