The only (unavoidable) downside to this is that it expects the cursor to be at the start of the searched item after the first . However, there's no way to be sure of that. Hence, any use of "n" and "N" (Normal mode) in the mappings will throw the search off by one, two, etc. I also have to be careful not to hit or while I'm typing an :Ex command. HTH :) -- Gerald

Also, is now lost for other modes, though you can fix that problem using the new map (see below), but may I first suggest you try my chcmdmode.vim plugin? I have the ^S at search prompt to do just this, and I have a few more maps that could be useful for you too. Now, back to improving what Benji suggested: cmap Next() fun! Next() if getcmdtype() == "/" return "\/\" elseif getcmdtype() == "?" return "\NN?\" else return "\" endif endfun You see, there is no temporary mapping involved, and you still didn't loose for other modes. -- HTH, Hari __ Do You Yahoo!?
