It's a little confusing: \n is \n when searching and \r when replacing. The \r in replace is a in reality a \n. So you can't find a \r after this replace, because Vim has replaced it with a \n. I've no idea why this was done, but we are stuck with it. Hope this helps, Simon -- + privacy is necessary + using gnupg http://gnupg.org + public key id: 0x92FEFDB7E44C32F9
