I use Vim to read man pages. But I’m having trouble searching for variables. For example I use:
/\<-s\> to search for ‘-s’, but it doesn’t find anything. Grrr. I see it in the file. What am I doing wrong?
\<matches the beginning of a word, and-normally isn’t considered a word character. Do:set iskeyword?to see what characters are considered word characters.Try this:
Should work then. See
:h /\<and:h 'iskeyword'.
