408 You can also treat buffer objects as sequence objects. In this context, they
7
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss

409 act as if they were lists (yes, they are mutable) of strings, with each

410 element being a line of the buffer. All of the usual sequence operations,

413 string (list of strings). This has one unusual consequence - b[:] is different
4707450c2b33 updated for version 7.0066
vimboss
parents: 20

414 from b. In particular, "b[:] = None" deletes the whole of the buffer, whereas
7
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

415 "b = None" merely updates the variable b, with no effect on the buffer.
