Hi, I am curious whether this kind of meta-regexp is possible with vim:
I want to match a certain kind of pattern and want to do "something" with it. The kind of pattern does not describe a group of chars but their relation to each other. Example: I want to search for a number sequence like 1221 and also 2332 and also 3443 and also.... Or: I want to find a sequence of five identical characters. The character itsself doesn't matter. There is no limit to complexity of this kind of pattern. The only limit seems to be my brain. Is there a kind of "general recipe" to construct such patterns and to instruct vim to use them as wanted ?
