Use argdo with search pattern to delete line while suppressing errors and requiring confirmation in Vim
- by richardh
I use gVim 7.3.46 on Win 7.
It is pretty straightforward to use argdo to search args files for a pattern and replace it while suppressing errors and requiring confirmation.
:argdo %s/pattern/replace/gec | update
However, I would like to delete entire lines that contain the pattern. I use the following.
:argdo %/pattern/d | update
But I can't suppress errors or require confirmation. Is there a way to do this? Thanks!
(Also, is there a way to set "more" off? Thanks!)
