Command: g[lobal] is not yet implemented

Research direction
Start by locating the command-line handling for the :g[lobal] command and how regex matching and line deletion are represented. Reproduce the current “not yet implemented” response, then trace related command behavior and tests if available. Done means :g accepts a regex and deletes matching lines without requiring manual removal.
