My most missing feature; search within the page

First a big thank you! I'am a heavy cVim user on my office Windows computer but sVim for may Mac at home is feature rich enough although I will tell you my most missing feature is a replacement for Ctrl-f (search with /)

Beyond the key-navigating the most used feature I like is the zoom function with a little zoomStep integer 5 value, excellent!

Thanks! Yeah I haven't worked on this in a while sorry. I really do want this feature too. I've gotten sidetracked with other projects recently. This feature is high on the list.

Just a +1 for the '/' to search keybinding. Also, how about 'o' as a replacement for command-l? Those are the two keybindings I miss the most.

Thanks!

If we are unable to pop Safari's search dialog due to security, it would still be possible for sVim to use window.find() to cycle through searches. You would just need to implement your own search box after initiating the / command.

Another thing that is really useful and what vimiim has on chrome is that after you make a search for some text, you can then visually continue to highlight the text with arrows. This is really useful for me.

Just want to bump this feature once again, it is really really unfortunate that I can't search for text on a page and then keep selecting text after the text was selected.
