Hi All I want to use the below command in command line to search my specified pattern in the text :normal /pattern
However, it doesn't take effect in my current version:gVim 7.3.46 anyone knows how to correct this command or other comments? My request is from below case: used for I want to set my own command to search the pattern when I did the selection on the konsole terminal currently I could use below succesfully to insert some text which I selected on the konsole. :command Joe :exec "normal i" . @* but can't I can't use below to search the pattern text which I selected on the konsole. :command Joe2 :exec "normal /" . @* and I guess it's due to the "normal /" is not a correct or complete command here. I have read the webpage: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_normal_command_in_a_script_for_searching but I can't understand why they do that. :execute "normal /pattern/e+1\<CR>" -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
