  1. I love VIM and use it everywhere but I'm much less a fan of macros than of using awk or sed for those kinds of edits. Macros have their place no doubt but the way my brain works, I'd usually rather write a short awk script, even on the command line, than run a macro. Also you can use '.' to repeat the 'dd' which is often easier and quicker than either counting the instances or just typing 'dd' over and over again. It repeats the last delete, yank or paste command.
