Ideally there would be an option that affects both n/N and gn/gN in the same way, perhaps call it cpo-N. The situation now is rather the worst case. Christian does have an old MQ patch for cpo-N for search only, although I think it's backwards; presence of cpo-N (set by default) should indicate compatibility with the original direction-remembering behavior. The user would remove it to get the alternate n/N and current gn/gN. Jason, are you considering fixing it? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
