How to use regex in Vim?

We often need to process big text files (larger than 100 mb) and we discovered that best text editor for this is Vim and gVim (windows version). Also a powerful mode to process text automatically is to use regular expressions (also called RegEx).

Using RegEx in Vim

Vim doesn’t support standard RegEx, but we built a tool that converts standard regex to Vim regex. This tool it’s available here: RegEx to Vim.

We hope that is useful for you.
