Search and replace

For example, to search for the first occurrence of the string ‘foo’ in the current line and replace it with ‘bar’, you would use: :s/foo/bar/

To replace all occurrences of the search pattern in the current line, add the g flag: :s/foo/bar/g

If you want to search and replace the pattern in the entire file, use the percentage character % as a range. This character indicates a range from the first to the last line of the file: :%s/foo/bar/g
