Subject: Visually selecting multi-lines inside backticks
Hi, this is quite a stupid question but why doesn't backticks work for
multi-line selection via something like vi`
I have some blocks like
`
lorem ipsum
`
and I want to select whole inside the backticks. I am reading that ',",`
are
only matched in the same lines.
Thanks

Hi Manas
there may be a niftier way, but I wd search for the backtick:
/`
then type V to go into Visual line mode, then n to search for the
second tick.
Then you can type : if you are after a substitute command, or y to yank
the marked material.
