How to remove text from all lines between two columns?
vim
Solution
Position your cursor in d, then press `Ctrl-V`, `l`, `G` and `d`.
- `Ctrl-v` enters visual block mode;
- `l` expands the visual selection one character to the right;
- `G` expands the selection to the last line;
- `d` deletes the selection.
Problem
I would like to remove the content for all lines between two columns. How do I do this? For example, I want this: ``` abcdefg hijklmn opqrstu ``` To become this if I remove text between columns 3 through 5: ``` abfg himn optu ```
