Now, the cursor just disappears. It works with vim, but it uses some nasty colors in this case. The advantage of /bin/vi was that just a white cursor was on the word to be replaced, and the user could just type 'y' or 'n'. The funny thing is that for pure searches the cursor is there, and typing 'n', makes it go to the next instance. </div></div>The behavior changed on F8. It used to work on F6, though. -- Paulo Roma Cavalcanti LCG - UFRJ </div>
