replay a vim macro until end of buffer

VimMacros

Vim Problem Overview

I want to run a macro I just recorded in register "x" on every single line of an open buffer, from my cursor to end of the buffer, in vim. How do I do that?

I know I can replay the macro n times:

15@x

...or just hold down @ until I reach the the last line, but I want to just hit a few keystrokes and be done with it.

Thanks in advance.

Solution 1 - Vim

Personally I would do

VG:normal @x

Edit: changed register to the one you specified.

Solution 2 - Vim

You can do (in command mode)

:%normal @x

Solution 3 - Vim

make recursive macro:

qa@aq

ex:

qa0gUwj@aq

It'll UPCASE first word from current line to the end of file with single @a. But make sure "a register is empty:

let @a=""

Solution 4 - Vim

999999@x, unless you have a very large buffer...

Solution 5 - Vim

From vim wiki, shortened version: qqqqq to record the macro @qq to finish recording @q to execute it (and will run till end of the file)
