According to the help (:he :ilist) :il /foo/ would find all occurrences of the string 'foo' while :il foo would find all occurrences of the pattern \<foo\>, that is, 'foo' as a whole word.
I've found that when the pattern is a number this is no longer the case: :il /20/ finds all occurrences of the string '20' as expected, but :il 20 gives an "E389 Couldn't find the pattern" even if '20' does occur as a whole word. In fact, :il /\<20\>/ effectively finds all occurrences of '20' as a whole word. Is this a bug or am I missing something? gVim on Windows 7 VIM - Vi IMproved 7.3 (2010 Aug 15, compiled Aug 18 2011 14:48:22) MS-Windows 32-bit GUI version with OLE support Included patches: 1-284 -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
