How can I add or/and modify a version-number in Vimrc autocmd


I love to work with Vim. I use the autocmd in ~.vimrc like:

  :fun LastMod()
  :  if line("$") > 20
  :    let l = 20
  :  else
  :    let l = line("$")
  :  endif
  :  exe "1," . l . "g/Last modified: /s/Last modified: .*/Last modified: " .
  :  \ strftime("%Y %b %d")
  :endfun

The Question is: How can I add or/and modify a version-number like:

from Version: v1.345 to Version: v1.346

In action when I write a shell-Script, I like to automaticly modify some Lines:

#!/bin/bash
# Last modified: <date time>
# Version: v1.23-<n>
#

(maybe thats a little more clear)


Solution

  • what I mean is: in a script like: #!/bin/bash # Last modified: # Version: v1.23<#>

    I think you want to change the version in your shell script(s). Assume that you have:

    #!/bin/bash
    #Last modified: whatever
    #Version: v1.234
    #other stuff
    ...
    

    You can have this line in your .vimrc:

    let @v="gg/Version:/\<cr>2E\<c-a>"
    

    Then everytime you open your shellscript, pressing @v will make the version number be incremented by 1. Well the 1 means for example, from v1.1099 to v1.1100

    In fact it created a macro.
