2. Multiple repeats *multi-repeat*

:[range]g[lobal]/{pattern}/[cmd]
Execute the Ex command [cmd] (default ":p") on the
lines within [range] where {pattern} matches.
the command. If an error message is given for a line, the command for that
line is aborted and the global command continues with the next marked or
unmarked line.
-
-To repeat a non-Ex command, you can use the ":normal" command: >
+ *E147*
+When the command is used recursively, it only works on one line. Giving a
+range is then not allowed. This is useful to find all lines that match a
+pattern and do not match another pattern: >
+ :g/found/v/notfound/{cmd}
+This first finds all lines containing "found", but only executes {cmd} when
+there is no match for "notfound".
+
+To execute a non-Ex command, you can use the `:normal` command: >
:g/pat/normal {commands}
Make sure that {commands} ends with a whole command, otherwise Vim will wait
for you to type the rest of the command for each match. The screen will not
return FALSE;
