This feature was added to vi, perhaps around 1980. It seems to be in most GNU utilities but not in POSIX. (I'm quite used to it since we at U of T added it to ed and qed earlier than vi. It is also in JOVE, the editor I've used since the mid 1980s. I could not live without it in egrep and git grep.) I would not recommend it in scripting because scripts should be portable. _______________________________________________ Swan-dev mailing list Swan-dev@lists.libreswan.org https://lists.libreswan.org/mailman/listinfo/swan-dev
