Hi all- I just recently joined this list after using Vim for awhile, and vi since, gosh, 1990 on a Vax. I'm astounded how, over the years, vi (and now Vim) have served my needs pretty much perfectly; what other editor is available on everything, has every feature you could possibly want, and is fast.
That said, there is a feature I do want, or maybe it's already there but I can't figure out how to do it: multiple highlights. What I mean by this is, typically I look for a string like "foo" in vim with /foo, and it highlights all occurrences in the file (standard behavior). What I need is to be able to search for something else (which I believe I could do by searching using a regex), but I would like that second thing to be in another color a la Google's search results (at least in dejanews). What I need, eventually, is an angry fruit salad of colors for all the search items I've entered. Is this currently doable, and if not, do you think it's possible to accomplish using a plugin? Thanks,
