:nohl - turn off current highlights

See www.vim.org for documentation.  O'Reilly and New Riders are expensive 
dead tree versions of what you can find on-line.  I have O'Reilly, It's OK 
but not great.

highlighting searches is a configurable option

per session:
:set nohlsearch

per user:
edit ~/.vimrc
add this line:
set nohlsearch

what is configurable:
:set all

Make clockwise circles with your right foot. 
Now use your right hand to draw the number "6" in the air.
