Vim g and% difference

The difference between G (global) and% in Vim:

G: The Global

s/pattern/replacement/: Replace each pattern that appears in the line

G/pattern/s/pattern/replacement/g: The G at the beginning is a global command, which means that all rows that match the address are changed. The G at the end is a flag that means changing each on one line.

grep in Linux = g/rep/p

%: represents each line of the file itself

% = = g/.*/

G to work with pattern/pattern/to represent all parts of a range (one line or whole text) that match that pattern

G/pattern/means that for all rows that match the address,/pattern/ means that the first line of S/pattern/replacement/that matches this addressmeans replacing only the first one in the row, s/pattern/ Replacement/g means replacing all of the matches in the line

%s/pattern/replacement = = G/.*/s/pattern/replacement

g/.*/: For all lines that have any number of arbitrary characters

%: All lines of this file
