Pressing "n" anytime will take you to next occurance. In emacs once any key other that C-s or C-r is pressed the highlight goes off and we nees "C-s C-s" to get it bak Is there a solution to keep it highlighted always (atleast this if not the "n" also, which can b replaced by "C-s C-s") Thanks Cloud
