I want to search a pattern in vim such that if a pattern appears multiple times in a line then it should search that pattern only 1 times in that line and after it match next line.
Is there any way to do it?
Thanks,

You can follow your pattern with
.*which will cause the pattern to match the remainder of a line where it is found. The search for the next pattern starts after the end of the last found pattern.
