Deleting up to a certain line in Vim
I know that to delete n lines, the command is [n]dd, where n is the number of lines to delete.
But what if I want to delete up to a certain line number? Say, if I'm on line 65 and I want to delete up to line 126 without having to do the math, how could I do that?
Solution 1:
d126G
Delete, line number, go.
A lot of commands in Vim can be followed by a move command to specify the scope.
Solution 2:
Use this command:65,126d
Solution 3:
:.,126d
. is the actual line. If you want delete from the next line, you can use .+1 instead.
