Search and Replace Text in Specific Range
There are times when you would like to change text within a specific range:First show the line numbers using;
:set nu
Then do the search and replace task like so:
:start_line,end_lines/text_to_be_searched_for_and_replaced/replacing_text/g
Example:
100
101 def _set_attr(j_patient):
102 self.id = j_patient.pop("patient.id", None)
103 self.voided = j_patient.pop("patient.voided", False)
104 self.created_by = j_patient.pop("patient.created_by", None)
105 self.created_on = j_patient.pop("patient.created_on", None)
106 self.modified_by = j_patient.pop("patient.modified_by", None)
107 self.modified_on = j_patient.pop("patient.modified_on", None)
108
109 def _set_patient(self, patient):
110 patient.id = self.id
111 patient.voided = self.voided
112 patient.created_by = self.created_by
113 patient.created_on = self.created_on
114 patient.modified_by = self.modified_by
115 patient.modified_on = self.modified_on
116
So, to change the word patient to person only under the _set_patient function, do this:
:109,115s/patient/person/g
