Hello, Consider the following _vimrc (for Windows vim 7.3)
set nocompatible set lines=47 set cmdheight=2 set number Open a file Add the pattern "foobar" at lines 10 and 70 Go to top 1/ Normal mode Type / foobar (foobar at line 10 is found) Type n (foobar at line 70 is found) Type n (foobar at line 10 is found and "search hit BOTTOM, continuing at TOP" message is displayed) Go to top 2/ Activate insert mode Type CTRL-O / foobar (foobar at line 10 is found) Type CRTL-O n (foobar at line 70 is found) Type CRTL-O n (foobar at line 10 is found BUT no "search hit BOTTOM, continuing at TOP" message is displayed) Now if you type CTRL-O alone, the "search hit BOTTOM, continuing at TOP" message is displayed, indicating that the message has probably been hidden by the -- INSERT -- message Remarks: - The problem has been reproduced by Jeffrey Lim (see thread with the same title on vim_use) - It occurs for any value of cmdheight - It does not occur if the second (and last) "foobar" is on line 42 My feeling is that this feature is very annoying for people working in insert mode.
