I need to match lines using g// (not v//); those lines having
'foo' and NOT having /)\s*;/ anywhere in the line. How do I
write such regex.
Well, there are several ways to go about it. One would be to use
Dr. Chip's "logipat" script:
http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=1290
Another would be to use something like
:g/foo/if getline(".")!~'blah' | print getline(".") | endif
which would search for lines that do contain "foo", but don't
contain "blah".
I don't know about using the \& atom. There might be a solution
with that as well, but for negating matters, it becomes trickier.
