Several tools such as grep, py.test, etc ... use the pattern <FileName>:<line number>: to point to errors. For example:



; grep -Hn Common setup.cfg
setup.cfg:11: Common


How can I modify vim and gvim so that I can invoke them like so:



gvim setup.cfg:11:


instead of 



gvim setup.cfg +11


I know that I can write a small shell script that would parse things but I wonder if there is an easier way.






vim gvim

    This isn't exactly analogous, but vim does have a feature to load the output from grep or (for example) compiler errors from make, and navigate between them. See :help quickfix for more info.

            How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

            Image
            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers.
