BPJ asked:
How do I do to get back to (roughly) the same line in
the file as I was on after executing a filter command
on the whole file?
Paul answered:
ctrl-i and ctrl-o will take you through the jump list.
But you may have to first use m' to ensure the current position is in
the jumplist. So
m'
:%!whatever
ctrl-o
After some experimentation, I like this best:
m'
:%!whatever
''
(why use CTRL-O for a single jump to the ' mark?)
Note you could also use any of the a-z marks instead of '.
Thanks all!
I was under the apparently false impression that marks
were destroyed by filtering the whole buffer -- probably
because the filter I first tried mangled the contents
too much.
