How to search and replace function for "vscode vim"?
i have tried but didnot find a way to search and replace in vscode with the vim keybindings plugin. The vim console doesn't take regular vims search and replace function :5,9s/foo/bar/g and vscode's default Ctrl+f doesn't work either as it is a vim binding.
Answer
If you want to use VSCode's default search functionality while using the Vim extension, you need to configure the extension .
"vim.handleKeys": { "<C-f>": false }
Check the documentation for more information.
Regarding the actual vim search functionality, I cannot confirm it not working. The example you provided works on my end.
Input:
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
foo
Running :5,9s/foo/bar/g results in:
foo
foo
foo
foo
bar
bar
bar
bar
bar
foo
foo
