Yes. The only problem is that ~y doesn't look for whole words. For instance, if you also use a label "reduce", <limit>~yred<enter> will also find messages matching "reduce". I wonder if ~Y should be added to search for whole words (or define some prefix that could be used with other pattern modifiers, e.g. ~:y EXPR, ~:B EXPR and so on). -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
