Hm. there must be "something" in Muttrc. I dont see it in my
local ~/.muttrc; this "something" is controlling every /search
term and highlighting it.
the regular vim /tmp/foofile.c /tmp/footext is fine. it's only
in mutt that highlights EVERY instance that I'm searching for.
I'll figure it out eventually if you don't know offhand. or
anybody else.
maybe I should just find keith bostic's newvi; see if they have it
for linux; theyve got everything else... {grumble}
thanks, polyt.
