What is weirder is that when I run this program
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $string;
open FILEIN , '<', '/home/ruben/testing.txt' or die;
open FILEOUT , '>', '/home/ruben/testing2.txt' or die;
my $tmp;
for $tmp (){
print $tmp;
$tmp =~ s/e/\n/g;
print FILEOUT $tmp;
}
Then vim seems to see the \n normally. But when you run the substition in VIM
it goes nuts.
