Make (next) found match to appear in the screen's center
Turned out to be easier than expected:nnoremap n nzz
nnoremap N Nzz
Simply adds the zz
(see :h z.
) to n
and N
commands.
P.S. Original question and answer as SO.
Edit1 Problem with the solution is that the message search hit BOTTOM, continuing at TOP
, due to the zz
command, now doesn't appear on the screen anymore. Trying now to use the other tip: set scrolloff=5
. Will see how that works.
Edit2 Yep, the set scrolloff=5
works for me much better than the nzz
.
