-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hi, It looks like the new nvi version don't accept <tab> in the context of substitute. A minimal use case would be to replace all leading 8 spaces with tabs, what one would do on older version of nvi would be: : 1,$ s/^ /<tab>/g Now, with nvi in FreeBSD 10.x+, entering <tab> won't yield the <tab> character. This seems to be a regression from older nvi version. Is this a known issue, or did I missed something? Thanks in advance! Cheers, -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJTExA6AAoJEJW2GBstM+nsRzIQAIfSS4isLQF4ex8ZzXQyE/0I 6Wia9FRHsa5gYt8phJxvWWbPCFeyHuqRjAkUEk+btuReZUSgEen27848v350hmBZ DXMaJknryGIU1/f9x/XIjLYpmBOf58tN+rPId6psgFiH7NmdTcfAVg320fdAKlKC gaMQHA3yGBC4ZTmopdj/e71gqmmjQuPe7kjyOx4fpdUWNKU+llIb5bUB1YWKYzyu /hBBp8bewWoHjlH4qa0hSK/k6ef8yA8WmFEFldHZMQeXizQTmNxDKURZ9gZGOlYQ m3mmeatE8KN+XVwn46p+iB9FcJu1dpzPq2QrepiWRzZJkxqOJhmjvQ0ZbZG1A6rM jjQCRvKRi3PjzRPrGkBhhSZcRYmpNsYV8Anf4mUg5GxbJNKYzHAhKJ+dySc+nvqm 5xccpeGXpw/ji/A5OefoEzQSAhujVaBW5x64J28E7VwY5zw38K20wm0hv+KfWofM OWc/gAB/1OYh5i+BaEb/O7RBoFIK+19MkJU3LFklBpDB2d8AE7vhoCbE4j9uujwB 8yFGNcl4up2z0ln+YhBYfTo8oc4iq6V55vNJYOM5iARKlQKYlhpPpyFgL+ssR4nY +hAPSJ8qV2dMNqwdwW7oGhlzAMR/+i/s/TMeHyLCJijEcTpZZB/V7k/I6muzHnYg p9f4hmB2r2f6/TaUyFmH =5n4i -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
