What does this do in Vim?
qa
start recording a macro into register "a"
'a
go to the mark named "a" (which strangely doesn't get dropped
until later in this macro)
^i--[esc]
insert "--" at the beginning of the line. This could be changed
to just
I--[esc]
as "I" is the same as "^i"
j
go down one line
ma
drop the mark named "a" here
^
go to the first character on the line
2x
delete the first 2 characters
q
stop recording the macro
Figure it out and you win!
Now as to *why* one would want to do all this, it's a bit hard to
tell without the text it's expected to be run over.
Additionally, the macro is recorded, but never played back.
