Hello,
I have a csv file with the following content:
country X
aa
bb
cc
dd
country Y
ee
ff
which I would like to convert to
X aa
X bb
X cc
X dd
Y ee
Y ff
Can this be done with search and replace? I have got a search pattern
but don't manage to churn out multiple lines.

The text you quote from tip 26 is correct, and it's not a bug. There's a tiny
bit
more at
:help /\r
:hel
at makes it worth complicating
search/replace commands with inconsistent character meanings?

Several others have given a function+s
Sorry, typo. It has to be:
:let i=1
:g/case/s/%match/\=i/|let i+=1

yes v
Is VIM capable of replacing matching text with a number that
increments with each match?
For instance:
case %match:
case %match:
case %match:
case %match:
Becomes:
case 1:
case 2:
case 3:
case 4:
case 5:
