That would work for some cases, but the more frequent case I run into is doing command-line completion, like :help a<tab> and get a multi- page list that I want to search through, because the list is usually not sorted in any discernible manner. The completion output uses the same More prompt, so I was hoping there was some generic mechanism that would work for this case as well. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
