[LUG] Vi search highlight cancel




Posted by "Neil Williams" <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


Simon asked a little while ago about how to cancel the
highlighting of search patterns in Vi - once the search
is no longer needed.

Finally found it, Simon!

Enter the Vi command:
:nohlsearch

A lot longer than most Vi commands, but it does work.
