vim: how to record norm commands?

up vote

favorite

I edit and correct a lot of identical files

using those commands

:%norm f^ID
:%s/s+$//
:%norm A,
:%norm GG$x

I also used the macro mode

qa

for record macro a

and

@a

to execute

But for some strange reason
or probably my error
it applied only some commands

My question is: is possible to save
those command in a script
and use

 vim -N -u NONE -n -c "set nomore" -S script.vi file.txt

Of course the syntax

:%norm f^ID
:%s/s+$//
:%norm A,
:%norm GG$x

Used in a script give me a error

Vim is 7.4 on slackware 14.2

try -s ... and add a :x in the end. There is several options for sourcing files: -S ex-commands (no ":") or -s vim-commands

This is not exactly what you asked, but you can create vim scripts with your content. Lets start with a simple case:

$ cat noendspaces
#!/usr/bin/vim -s
:%s/ *$//
:r ! echo "#last changed by $USER in :" `date`
:x

and then...

$ chmod 755 noendspaces
$ for a in file*.txt 
 do
 ./noendspaces $a
 done

@elbarna, I added a :%norm A, to my script and it worked. Could you detail the "doesn't work with norm commands"

I have tried the script with my file and it doesn't work,use the same commands one by one on vim work

@elbarna, strange! 1) could you please check which vim? 2) please make a small test with: line1=#!/usr/bin/vim -s, line 2=:%norm A, and line 3=:x and check if it adds ","
