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,
Who doesn't want an angry fruit salad of colors?
