Consider the following line of python code:
columns = ["registered","casual","counts", "workingday", "month", "dteday"]
I often need to remove one or more strings from such a list. What is the most efficient way to do this? I usually move cursor to beginning of first word and use visual mode to highlight and then delete the relevant strings. This is pretty inefficient as the quotation marks render the e command less effective; is there a better way to do this?
