OMG ... vim ... and spaces ...

Simple shot.

File, in file some columns, where one line looks like this (some part from
psql -l -U username)

 niet            | niet    | UTF8
 postgres    | postgres | UTF8
 template0  | postgres | UTF8
 template1  | postgres | UTF8
 testowa     | postgres | UTF8
 testowa1   | mzdw     | UTF8
 testowisko | postgres | UTF8

I need only 1st word from line.

Commands
:1 (move to 1st line)
V (select line)
G (move to end of test and also keep selected)

Then press : (will see this->     :'<,'>   )

Type: s/ .*// and press Enter

And all go off ;)
Why ?

Thats why, because 1st character is a space before 'niet, and other dbnames'.

Press u (it will undo changes).

Now, let be a little smart ;) ?????

:1
V
G
:'<,'>s/^ // | '<,'>s/ .*//g

Tap enter and again enter :D


Uff ;)
