(resent, because the original message seems to got lost)

Hi,
suppose you have the following file:

,----
| 1
| 2foo
| 3foo
| 4foo
| 5foo
| 6
| 7
| 8
`----

If the cursor is on line 1, I can jump to the end of the "foo" block by 
using:
/^\(foo\n\)\+/e

Is there a similar way when searching backwards (e.g. the cursor is on 
line 8 and I want to jump to beginning of line 2)?
?^\(foo\n\)\+ unfortunately jumps to the beginning of line 5. Can I make 
Vim somehow behave consistent to the forwarding search?


regards,
Christian
