In vim with macro:

1. position your cursor on (1/1)

2. record macro: qallxhhjq

   q = start/stop macro recording
   a = name of macro for invocation
   llxhhj = macro body, commands to execute (very lame solution: right, right, delete character, left, left, one line down
   the "one line down" is important if you do want execute the macro multiple times!

3. position your cursor on (1/1)

4. invoke macro a: 5@a

Result:

fobar
