How can scroll (or recall) previous searches (/) done in the same session of vi. I dont mean here the last search with n or N. I mean searches before the last one.
This is equivalent to Esc k or j in recalling commands previously typed at the POSIX shell prompt (or arrow up down in bash shell).
Thanks for answers.
Solved! Go to Solution.

This is about shell history instead of vi history.

Re: Scrolling previous searches in the vi editor (not n or N)
a piece of paper and a pencil.
It's been working great for years.
Well ok.... I admit it puts the vi application in a bad light. But I rarely search for more than 2 things in a set of 40 files.
After a bit, I upgraded.
I switched the paper and pencil with windows notepad and putty. I use cut and paste. It has proved very useful when I need to search for a set of five, 30 character strings.
