Hi,
in it's current implementation, 'hlsearch' works as following:
* calling ":set hlsearch" for the first time after Vim has been
launched: just expresses user's general preference of having their
searches highlighted
* searching a text: all occurences become highlighted
* calling ":set nohlsearch": highlighted strings are reversed to
their normal colors
* calling ":set hlsearch" again: strings matched by the previous
search are highlighted again
* searching for another string: automagically turns 'hlsearch' on, if
it was on when vim started

No. You are confusing two (or maybe three) different things:
:set nohlsearch
:set nohls
matches will never be highlighted (from now on)
:set hlsearch
:set hls
matches will always be highlighted (from now on)
:nohlsearch
:nohlsearc
:nohlsear
:nohlsea
:nohlse
:nohls
:nohl
:noh
temporarily remove the search highlights, until next search
this is an ex-command, not a settable option
There is no :hls command, BTW. This is only to temporarily remove
highlights.
See
:help 'hlsearch'
:help :nohlsearch
Best regards,
Tony.
