As in Vi, searching is done by / and ?. The
string will be searched literally by default. To invoke a regular
expression search, first execute the search command /
(or ?) with empty search string. (I.e, type
/ followed by <RET>.) A search for empty string
will toggle the search mode between vanilla search and regular
expression search. You cannot give an offset to the search
string. (It is a limitation.) By default, search will wrap around
the buffer as in Vi. You can change this by rebinding the
variable vip-search-wrap-around. See Customization, for how to
do this.
