In vim patterns, [a-z] is a character range, not a character class. It specifically searches for characters whose code values are within the range. Ё and ё are outside the range [а-яА-Я ] for both cp1251 and utf-8. If you read at :help /collections and go down to the discussion of character classes, you will notice that it has character classes for [:alpha:], [:lower:], and [:upper:], among others. It also says These items only work for 8-bit characters, except [:lower:] and [:upper:] also work for multi-byte characters when using the new regexp engine. It suggests using [[:lower:][:upper:]] to do something close to what you want (it will also find non-Russian letters). The help does not mention any character class that includes exactly Russian letters, so the best you are going to be able to do is [А-яЁё]. Vim's regexp engine is working as defined; the fact that Unicode and cp1251 do not have all the Russian alphabetic characters in a single range is the issue. You could request that a character class be added to do what you want; if you can also provide a patch, that would significantly increase the chance that the feature would be added. ...Marvin -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
