I don't have tag 'non-greedy' in the help. I have vim 7.9.164

How do you match JUST the second home in any of the above lines (ie avoid
greediness)
/home.\{-}\zshome

Hello,
Try:
/^.\{-}home.\{-}\zshome
for your reference:
\{-} makes the '.' match as little as possible
\zs makes the search match begin at this point in the pattern

I mean, I suppose you could be doing operations on your search but
