Special Anchor
\ze
If you want to match “A” in “ABC” but not in “ADD”, use \ze anchor.
/A\zeBC
Read: Find A, which is followed by BC but only match A.
Here’s the official help page for \ze from doc/pattern.txt
\ze Matches at any position, and sets the end of the match there: The
previous char is the last char of the whole match. |/zero-width|
Can be used multiple times, the last one encountered in a matching
branch is used.
Example: "end\ze\(if\|for\)" matches the "end" in "endif" and
"endfor".
This cannot be followed by a multi. |E888|
{not available when compiled without the |+syntax| feature}
