My Vim replace with a regex is throwing a `E488: Trailing characters` -
i'm trying find instances of twitter handle, , wrap anchor tag around them.
:%s/\(@[\w]\)/<a href="http://www.twitter.com/\1">\1<\/a>/gc
which gives me:
e488: trailing characters
when separator character (/
in case) between {pattern}
, {string}
contained in 1 of those, must escaped \
. trick avoid use different separator character, e.g. #
:
:%s#@\(\w\+\)#<a href="http://www.twitter.com/\1">\0</a>#gc
ps: if should think should do, pattern wrong; see correction.
