I have just noticed a problem when searching whitespaces. I'm using version 24.3.1 under linux/slackware 14.1. For instance, with a file containing the unique line abcd fghix jklmxx nopqxxx and with the cursor on column 0, when searching whitespaces (incremental or not), the cursor comes under the 'f' which is normal but it stays their even when typing many ' '. This does not happen with 'x' for instance. What can I do to avoid this and find many whitespaces ? I hope have been clear and sorry for my poor english. Regards. -- Ph. Delavalade
