Hi, I am new using VIM ... to be precise I use GVIM. My platform: Ubuntu 6.10, VIM 7 I made my own .gvimrc file (see below) and Incsearch is not working. What am I doing wrong? It should work when using :/pattern, shouldn't it? I checked :set all and incsearch is on. Is something related to the colorscheme and highlighting? I used to edit perl files, is my coloscheme overwriting the perl color syntaxes?
