vi
with a form feed (Ctrl-L), starting with an open brace {, a text formatter
macro in the sections variable, or begin or end of file.
If you specified the lisp option, a section boundary is also identified by a
line with a leading (.
]] Moves forward to the beginning of the next section. See [[ for the definition
of a section.
If you specified the lisp option, a section boundary is also identified by a
line with a leading (.
% Finds the balancing character to that under the cursor. The character
should be one of the following characters:
[{(< >)}].
; Repeats the previous F, f, T, or t command.
, Repeats the previous F, f, T, or t command in the opposite direction.
/regexp ,
Search forward in the file for a line matching the regular expression regexp
and position the cursor at the first character of the matching string. When
used with an operator to define a text range, the range begins with the
character at the current cursor position and ends with the first character of
the matching string. You can specify whole lines by following regexp with
/+n or /–n, where n is the offset from the matched line.
?regexp
Is similar to /, but searches backwards in the file.
Ctrl-] Uses the word after the cursor as a tag. (For information about tag, see
ex.)
Object Manipulator Commands
An object manipulator command works on a block of text. The command character
is followed immediately by any kind of movement command. The object that is
manipulated by the object manipulator command is the text from the current
position pointer to wherever the movement command would leave the cursor.
For example, in dL, d is the object manipulator command to delete an object. It is
followed by the movement command L which means move to the bottom line of the
screen. The object manipulated by the command thus extends from the current line
to the bottom line on the screen; these lines are deleted.
Normally an object extends up to, but not including, the position of the cursor after
the move command. However, some movements work in a line mode. For example,
L puts the cursor on the first nonblank character of the last line on the screen. If it
is used in an object manipulation command, it includes the entire starting line and
the entire ending line. Some other objects include the cursor position. For example,
d$ deletes up to and including the last character on a line; by itself the $ would
have placed the cursor on the final character. Repeating the command letter implies
working on a line basis; thus 5dd deletes five lines.
Objects that are deleted or otherwise manipulated have their original values placed
in a buffer, an area of computer memory that can hold text. There are several ways
this can be done:
