I always have 'ignorecase' on. Why ? Because 99.5% of my
searches are ignorecase. I estimate that I need case-sensitive
searches less than 0.5% of my searches. I do have one-key mapping
that sets/toggles 'noic'; but I estimate that I use it less than once a week.

Am I, like, alone in the Universe to use/have 'set ignorecase' by default ?

And if I am, then I really need to launch this [EMAIL PROTECTED] program
(Search for IntraTerrestrial Ignorecase-by-default-users).
You download it, it scans every reachable computer for .vimrc
with 'set \(ic\|ignorecase\)' inside, reports results back to SITI
headquarters..
