vim: how to read unix command without newline?
Suppose this.
I want to edit new libvirt xml
virsh dumpxml machine1 > machine2.xml
Then I open with vim
vim machine2.xml
I want to change the uuid,and I use this sequence
:r ! uuidgen
But the new uuid go under /uuid with a newline
<uuid>6r123ttz-6t01-356t-1y7h-g7oe196c8u3m</uuid>
e67baf90-751b-4aea-a14b-aca1b881542b
I want a result like this
Maybe firts I delete the old uuid
<uuid></uuid>
then in the line empty I want the correct uuid without the newline
<uuid>e67baf90-751b-4aea-a14b-aca1b881542b</uuid>
The question is: is possible to user the :r command without newline?
