Hello, I have a mapping which immediately searches for visually selected items. It achieves this by yanking the selected text and exec[utes] a search for the register content This works so far.
vmap / y:execute "/".escape(@",'[]/\.*')<CR> Now I tried this first time for multiline selects, but it does not work: Selecting this: USE ICCS_2005 GO leads to: -> E486: Pattern not found: USE [EMAIL PROTECTED]@ To surround the error, I shortened the abbreviation to vmap / y:execute "/".@"<CR>, this causes the same error message. What is ^@ ? How can I have \n instead of thes ^@ - characters to make the search work?
