Re: Place cursor after search

I just discovered ViEmu and it's so cool!

Unfortunately I can't get the above feature to work in ViEmu. E.g.

/abc/e places the cursor on "a" and not on "c" as expected.

Similarly /abc/+2 doesn't place the cursor two lines down from "abc".

You should also be able to do something like /abc/s-3 which places the cursor 3 characters before the text "abc".

Thanks

Re: Place cursor after search

Hello,

Yes, after-search modifiers are not supported. For some cases you can use \zs and \ze instead (match-start and -end markers):  /ab\zsc  is the same as /abc/e. I plan to implement those extra modifiers in the future.

Thanks for the kind comment,

  Jon
