Additionally when vim is built with mouse support, shift+left click and shift+right click are find word forward and find word backward. As a note, the * and # commands search exact words only; it's different than typing /foo. To find the current word even as a substring, it's g* and g#. This is a nice touch when, for instance, you're looking for calls to read() in a file with calls to readLine() and readAll(). /s/ Adam _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
