I have a list of items where I want to replace the first two characters:a) item 1b) item 2c) item 3What is the fastest way to make this:* item 1* item 2* item 3I have an approach with visual mode (Ctr-v, jjj, but need to do two replace commands. Iirc, this replacement can be done with 1 command)
How to block replace code in visual mode?
