The problem set is (& always was) to edit HTML templates in a single step.
CHANGE HTML FROM:
<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>
CHANGE HTML TO:
<A HREF=https://www.amazon.com/s?k=windows+pc>(amazon) windows pc</A><P>
<A HREF=https://www.amazon.com/vine/vine-items?search=windows%20pc>(vine) windows pc</A><P>
Has anyone yet proposed a solution of fewer steps than the following macro?
Step 1: firefox file:///C:/sys/myurls.html" bookmark & press Control+C
Step 2: press @q after the ad hoc desired macro is defined on the fly
qq: Starts recording a macro in the register q.
:'a,'bs/foo/windows/g<Enter>
This replaces "foo" with "windows" in the selected set.
<Enter> simulates pressing the Enter key.
:%'a,'bs/bar/pc/g<Enter>
This replaces all occurrences of "bar" with "pc" in the selected set.
q: Stops recording the macro.
To use the macro:
Open the file in Firefox & press Control+Q to edit in gvim
Enter the macro recording mode by pressing qq
Enter the commands as shown above
Press q to stop recording
To execute the macro, press @q
This will execute the entire macro, replacing "foo" with "windows"
and "bar" with "pc" within the selected area in a single step.
This approach effectively defines the two replacement operations as a
single unit within the macro, making it a one-step action for the user.
Has anyone proposed a simpler one-step solution than that above?
If so, I'd love to see it as I'm seeking real working actual solutions.
