New issue 42 by [email protected]: Patch: improved docs for 'hlsearch'
and :nohlsearch
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=42
The :nohlsearch command is named somewhat unfortunatelly. Years ago, as a
newbie, I came to believe that it is a convenience shortcut for :set
nohlsearch. Instead of using :nohlsearch, I created a mapping
using 'invhlsearch'. Over time, this misconception of mine introduced
unpleasant side effects, most notably when sourcing files from autocommands.
I believe this is mainly a documentation issue. The attached patches try to
improve the 'pattern.txt' and 'options.txt' files.
