Hi,
I would like to embed vim code inside bash script.
I have simple text file text_file.txt with content:
aaa
Content sample.sh file:
#!/bin/bash
echo "Start running vim commands inside bash program."
vim +"so dummy.vim" << EOF
:e text_file.txt
:s/a/b/
:x
EOF
echo "End of running run vim commands inside bash program."
echo "Start running vim commands inside bash program."
vim +"so dummy.vim" << EOF
:e text_file.txt
:s/a/b/
:x
EOF
echo "End of running run vim commands inside bash program."
Above code opens text_file.txt, replaces letter a with b and saves the file.
When I run sample.sh file from shell: ./sample.sh
The output on terminal is:
Start running vim commands inside bash program.
Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal
End of running run vim commands inside bash program.
Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal
End of running run vim commands inside bash program.
and script does get executed, so file text_file.txt correctly gets changed to baa
The only little bit annoying thing is the Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal message in terminal. How to suppress this message?
Thanks.

Start vim in Ex-mode?
vim +"so dummy.vim" -e << EOF

Have you considered using sed, which was designed for this sort of job.

rather than twisting vim inside out?

Thank you very much for your answers.
I changed line from:
vim +"so dummy.vim" << EOF
to line
vim +"so dummy.vim" -e << EOF
and "annoying" message is suppressed, like I wanted.
Just additional question.
Does -e switch has some negative side effect, like some commands not working or working differently like in standard vim?
I am reading about about "Ex mode" (-e switch) and "Improved Ed mode" (-E switch).
