If you try :colorscheme blue you can see that the results have orange background with dark text (maybe black?), while the editor background is blue (as the name of the color scheme suggests). > So: can I add something to my ~/.vimrc that =limits= > the "search" to displaying one term? if I am searching for, > say, "the" or I guess /\<the\>, I dont want every "the" in my > file.

I don't see an option to highlight the _next_ result only. However, if you do _not_ set hlsearch, searching and continuing searching will not highlight anything, instead let the cursor skip to the next match (tried here with "gvim /COPYRIGHT", /this, /, /, / and so on), with :set nohlsearch for testing. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
