hi david. right! thanks for this man! so, would it keep executing the s_next movement would it, to the bottom of the window, until the string was found? or not? would it keep wrapping lines too in order to do this? of course I guess It would have to, but that this would just enable the search to start from a given point in the window. is that the deal?
