lo there, when i do a search like /text it highlights all of the matches and i can use n and N to navigate. how do i turn the highlighting off when i am done?
You could put following mapping in your.vimrc: :nnoremap <silent> <CR> :nohlsearch<CR> Now, as soon as you hit the enter key, the higlight is turned off. Is a very straigthforward and easy way of turning off the current highlight, without changing your settings at all. HTH, Guido. -- http://vanhoecke.org ... and go2 places!
