I have no beef with that. (I don't use "aw", but it seems to take the "appended" space only, if there is one¹. So if cow would be "outer", should it then take the leading space as well?) Erik ¹ That "caw" then does take the prepending space if invoked on "well?", rather than " space ", takes some getting used to. Admittedly, ":h aw" does say "Leading or trailing white space", not "Leading and trailing white space". -- All the really good ideas I ever had came to me while I was milking a cow. - Grant Wood -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
