hi there, i'm getting pretty annoyed by the behavior of search-next; this is how i use mutt pretty often, and it doesn't exactly help to make it easier:
starting in index: <search>~b pattern<enter> <display-message> <search>pattern<enter> <exit> <search-next> <display-message> <search-next> at this moment, instead of just jumping to the next match, mutt prompts me for the pattern. it's obviously trying to be helpful, but in fact does just the opposite. i just want it to do what i told it, which is search for the next match, not create a new search. is there a knob i've overlooked? i'm running 1.5.1i, but iirc it behaved this way since i started using it (which isn't a terribly long period): 1.2.5i, couple of 1.3.2x revisions, one 1.4.x iirc (just a few days), and now 1.5.1i thanks -- FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE 9:46PM up 2 days, 12 hrs, 4 users, load averages: 0.12, 0.03, 0.01
