I've forgotten the exact syntax for the substitute command. What I've been doing is :1,$s/old-sting/new-string/ To change old-string to new-string from lines 1 to $ (last line). This just changes the first occurence of old-string on each line. How do I handle multiple occurences? Also, does anyone have a nice vi command summary? Most that I've seen just give the basics. I don't think I've ever seen substitute included (since I guess it is actually an ex command). Please e-mail if possible. Thanks in advance.
