+1 Agree.
We have a solution, which, if someone has a BETTER solution, I'm all ears.
The problem set is (& always was) to edit HTML templates in a single step.
Herbert Kleebauer proposed a solution, which nobody has been able to beat.
That working solution (that nobody yet can beat), has two components.
That 1st component brings up the users' editor of choice in one step.
The 2nd component is to make those edits, where this is the HTML template:
<HR>
<A HREF=https://www.amazon.com/s?k=foo+bar>(amazon) foo bar</A><P>
<A HREF=https://www.amazon.com/vine/vine-items?search=foo%20bar>(vine) foo bar</A><P>
<HR>
Has anyone yet proposed a solution of fewer steps than the following?
STEP 1. While viewing the "firefox file:///C:/sys/myurls.html" bookmark,
simply press "Control+U" to bring it up in your favorite editor
STEP 2. In that favorite editor, in as few steps as possible, change
CHANGE FROM: foo bar
CHANGE TO: laptop computer
What has anyone proposed that is SIMPLER (fewer steps) than this macro?
:'a,'bs/foo/laptop/g | 'a,'bs/bar/computer/g
That translates to from a to b, replace all instance of foo with laptop;
and do the same for bar by replacing it with computer (in a single macro).
What editor has anyone yet proposed which can do that in fewer steps?
