True. In that case, you could use
:'<,'>s/\%'<\_.*\%'>/* & */
Well, at least, that was what I thought. But that does not work here on
gvim 7.2.284 Windows. I tried several variations, like
:'<,'>s/\%<'<\_.\{-\}\%>'>/* & */
But I always get E486. Anybody knows how that is supposed to work? That
smells like a bug to me.
(a little bit later):
Well, this one works and yields the expected result:
:'<,'>s/\%<'>\_.*\%<'>../\/* & *\//
as does this one
'<,'>s/\%'<\_.*\%<'>../\/* & *\//
But I still think, there is a bug in how the regex engine handles \%<'>
and \%>'> marks. Am I missing something?
regards,
Christian
