How to do a case insensitive search in vim
/\cYourSearchKeywords
-- case insensitive
/\CYourSearchKeywords
-- case sensitive, which is the default behaviour
A few other ideas:
\c
can appear anywhere in the pattern, so if you type a pattern and then decide you wanted a case-insensitive search, just add a\c
at the end.- add
set ignorecase
for case-insensitive searching in my vimrc, and I can use\C
to do a case-sensitive search - There's also
set smartcase
which will automatically switch to a case-sensitive search if you use any capital letters- Remember!
set smartcase
applies only whenset ignorecase
is already active
- Remember!
