REGEX in vim search & replace (VS Code + macbook) not working?
I'm trying to edit a .md file in VS Code and I want to replace every tag starting with #+END_... with a space character (or just nothing). This is in VS Code 1.80.1 with the Vim extension installed, on Macbook Big Sur.
I've tried these:
10,20s/#+END\(.*\)\n//g
10,20s/#+END\(.*\)//g
10,20s/#+END\{.*\}\n//g
but every time VS Code says it doesn't find the pattern. What am I doing wrong? Do I have to tweak any particular config of the VIM extension in VS Code?
(I'm a bit new to VS Code, please help)
Here's a snippet of the text I'm trying to replace

Solution
You can use
10,20s/#\+END_.*//
Explanation
10,20Range, for line 10-20s/Start substitution#\+END_Match#+END_.*Match the rest of the line//Substitute with an empty string
