• Hello World

Is it possible to remove "|" from the cursor on line 1 to "world on line 7? (remains in normal mode)

I often do this. I usually use "dd" to delete all lines between line 1 and line 7, and then delete the word "dfw", but it is difficult if I am on line 347 and my text is on 381. I have to count the lines between them, and often i delete one line too much.

Answer 1

dd ( ) d (^ - )

^The quick
 brown fox
 jumped over
 the lazy
 dog

d/the . ,

 the lazy
 dog

Answer 2

"":

d/world<Enter>
