Peaking at the vim source, it looks like the space character and tab characters are also invalid delimiters. I'm not sure why tab isn't, but ':s ' is a command to repeat the last substitution. Is it possible to capture these restrictions in a pattern match? Would an acceptable, modification of the patch be to just move the two patterns down to near the bottom and do the checks for valid characters there? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Yi development mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/yi-devel -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
