All,

I have a file , which has a single column. I want to append a single
text string after each string in the whole column.

Tried doing %s/.$/text on vi but this eats away last alphabet on every
line.

Thankyou

Maybe nedit helps. It allows "paste column".

Yes, because you replaced that last letter.
Why not

%s/$/yourtext/
