on which I would like to operate on with a file, v.vim that looks
something like this:
%s/^M\([A-Z][ A-Z]\)/\r\1/g
%s/^M//g
g/^ /-1join
write tmp
quit
If, interactively, I use
:source v.vim
where v.vim contains the first 3 lines of the above file, everything
seems fine, but when I try
on the command line
vim -e -s data.txt <v.vim
the result in tmp is a concatenation into one line. I hope that
someone can explain what I'm
doing wrong, this is my first attempt to use vim in this way, so
undoubtedly I'm misinterpreting
something and using the wrong search keywords to track down the problem.
