Hello
At work I have to edit regurlarly files containing special characters
like*^M or ^A*
for the moment Im' at the first stage where I just try to make replace a
string by another one in my autocommand:

    *au VimEnter,BufNewFile,BufRead,BufEnter  *.log  s/string1/string2/*

But this doesn't give me good results:
Wehn opeining a .log file, Vim prompts me to know if I want to replace
the first occurence ;
hitting "y" (yes key) change the first matching one then brings me error
messages :

    E488: trailing characters
    E486: pattern not found string1

Any mean to make it replace all matching strings whitout prompting and
without error ?
Thanks in adavance for your help.
Eddine.


_Exactly_ what command did you use? s/string1/string2 (where string1 is six letters, Sierra Tango Romeo India November Golf, and the digit one) will never replace a ^M or a ^A

Best regards,
Tony.
