Search and Replace Options
B Search and replace backwards, i.e. search and
replace from the current cursor position
towards the beginning of the text.
G Global search and replace, i.e. search and
replace in the entire text, irrespective of the
current cursor position.
n n = any number. Find and replace n occurrences
of the search string, counted from the current
cursor position.
N Replace without asking, i.e. do not stop and
ask Replace (Y/N) for each occurrence of the
search string.
U Ignore upper/lower case, i.e. regard upper and
lower case alphabeticals as equal.
W Search and replace whole words only, i.e. skip
matching patterns which are embedded in other
words.
L Search and replace local to marked block only
more ..
Examples
N10 Find the next ten occurrences of the search
string and replace without asking.
GWU Find and replace whole words in the entire
text. Ignore upper/lower case.
W Search for whole words only, i.e. the search
string 'term' will only match the word
'term', not the word 'terminal'.
BU Search backwards and ignore upper/lower case,
i.e. 'Block' will match both 'blockhead' and
'BLOCKADE', etc.
Terminate the list of options with <─┘, and the
search and replace starts. If the search string is
found, the cursor is positioned at the end of it,
and you must response to the question: Replace
(Y/N)?. You may abort the search and replace ope-
ration at this point with the Abort command (Ctrl-
U). The search and replace operation may be re-
peated by the Repeat last find command (Ctrl-L).

A global search and replace with the N-option
specified (Replace without asking) normally shows
each replacement on the screen. This is suspended
if you press any key, resulting in a faster opera-
tion.
