Is there a way to do negative lookahead in vim regex?
问题 In Vim, is there a way to search for lines that match say abc but do not also contain xyz later on the line? So the following lines would match: The abc is the best The first three letters are abc and the following would not match: The abc is the best but xyz is cheaper The first three letters are abc and the last are xyz I know about syntax like the following: /abc\(xyz\)\@! but that only avoids matching abcxyz and not if there is anything in between, such as abc-xyz . Using /abc.*\(xyz\)\@!
