Yes, when you have a tags file. That does not work in the help system, which is what I was asking about. On second thought, I suppose my actual question is, why doesn't the help contain a pre-built tags file? On third thought, perhaps because what I'm asking for is more of an index operation, which is a looser association that a series of tags is normally. Also, ':he /^L' gives 'E149: Sorry, no help...' My question stands, how would a user find out about ctrl-l within the / operator? (For the record, this appears to be answered elsethread.) ...Stu -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
