I want to achieve the following things in vi :
- Remove first few columns
- Remove lines starting with specific words
- Remove everything after first word.
I have the following command with respect to above requirements
:%s/new page //g to remove first two columns.
:g/abc/d , :g/xyz/d , :g/ddd/d to remove lines starting with specific words.
:%s/ .*//g to remove everything after first word.
Overall I want to run the following commands :
:%s/new page //g
:g/abc/d
:g/xyz/d
:g/ddd/d
:%s/ .*//g
How can I execute all the above commands in one single command.
I have tried | but it did not worked.
:g/abc/d|:g/xyz/d|:g/ddd/d
I am getting the following error :
E147: Cannot do :global recursive
How can I achieve this. I want to execute all commands in one single command.
Thanks
