I'm using the following command to auto replace some code (adding a new code segment after an existing segment)
%s/my_pattern/\0, \r some_other_text_i_want_to_insert/
The problem is that with the \r, some_other_text_i_want_to_insert gets inserted right after the new line:
mycode(
some_random_text my_pattern
)
would become
mycode(
some_random_text my_pattern
some_other_text_i_want_to_insert <--- this line is NOT indented
)
instead of
mycode(
some_random_text my_pattern
some_other_text_i_want_to_insert <--- this line is now indented
)
i.e. the new inserted line is not indented.
Is there any option in vim or trick that I can make the newly inserted line indented?
Thanks.
