On this page, I’ve found this pattern

/\%>80v.\+ 

that helps in identifying lines longer than 80 characters by highlighting the characters after column 80.

I fail to understand its bit by bit explanation. Could you help me?

    This is quite simple, actually.

    • \%>80v starts the match after the virtual column number 80, see :help %>.

    • .\+ matches 1 or more of any character, see :help /. and :help \+.
