VIM search settings highlight

vim search Settings highlight


When Linux Vim opens the document search string, the Settings are searched to the string and highlighted.

There are two ways:

1. Temporary setting: ViM opens the document –& GT; Command line type
set hlsearch.

Cons: After closing the document, the next time you open it, you need to reset it again.

2. Permanent setting (recommended) : configured in ~/.vIMRC

vim ~/.vimrc

Add Set HLSearch to the file

Then save and exit.

Advantage: once set, permanent effect.
