You'll want to read up at :help /\%l :help /\%v :help /\%c (well, you can just start at the %l version and continue reading since they're serial). So you can do something like /foo\%>20l\%<30l\%>5c\<%45c to search for "foo" within the window (5,20)-(45,30) in your file (well, ignore any fenceposting errors I might have made there...) The %v and %c variants are the same (to determine the column) except the %v version takes tab-expansion into consideration, while the %c version takes literal character-counts into consideration (both have their uses). -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
