Excellent! Thanks a lot!
Sidenote: Since I decided to use the basic mode but wanted to have the
feature to jump to other occurrences, I've modified the basic version
a bit to jump into the other window in case the word was found (see
below). It is completely o.k. for me to do CTRL_W p to go back to the
original window.
func! StarAltWin()
let word = expand("<cword>")
let @/ = escape(word, '\.*$^~[')
if winnr("$") < 2
echohl ErrorMsg
echo "StarAltWin: no other window"
echohl None
return
elseif winnr("#")<1 || winnr("#")==winnr()
noa wincmd w
else
noa wincmd p
endif
try
normal! nzv
catch /:E486:/
" pattern not found
" (NEXT LINE NEWLY INSERTED:)
noa wincmd p
echohl ErrorMsg
echo printf("StarAltWin: Pattern not found in window %d: %s",
\ winnr(), @/)
echohl None
endtry
" (LINE noa wincmd p DELETED)
endfunc
