I use vim 9.1.0016 on Windows 10. In second column I would like to replace all A characters with X characters.
Sample: AAA AAA AAA AAA After change: AAA XXX AAA XXX Above is very simple sample. In my case I have text of words, not just letter A. I did: My cursor after opening a file is at first character in top left as expected. 1. Move 4 characters to the right: 4l 2. To get into visual block: CTRL+V 3. Select current and line bellow: j 4. Select text to tend of line: $ 5. Now second column is selected. I would like do the substitution with: :s/A/X/g And now I get: XXX XXX XXX XXX How to substitute characters inside visual block?
