Oh, but you can set up mappings for search commands as distinct from
mappings for ex-commands. Here's an example:
:cnoremap <expr> <CR> ((getcmdtype == '/' <Bar><Bar> getcmdtype ==
'?')?"<Bslash>CR>:set fdm=expr":'')
The above requires Vim 7.0 or later, and of course with expression
evaluation compiled-in.
Best regards,
Tony.

Neither will Iles.
