[wellylug] vi(m) question.

[Enkidu]

I want to add something to the start of every line. Every line starts
with white space eg

   xyz abc 
   qqwe tertertertet
   123 eeeeeee

Suggested solution is something like:

:%s/^\w/addit /iga

I can't remember all the variations I've tried but I can't get it to
work!

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Cliff
