Yes that's a bit better and fits in the line, so I've pushed that in your name. Note personally I use "smartcase" matching, and so usually search for lower case to match case insensitively. I use vim as my MANPAGER, but you can also use this with less by setting 'i' in your LESS env variable. cheers, Pádraig.
