SearchComplete breaks the expected functionality of
{c|d|y}/pattern
, effectively reducing them to/pattern
.SearchComplete breaks use of
/<Up>
to search history on some systems - it seems like it is specifically a problem in non-gui vim compiled as 64bit displayed within a terminal emulator. This problem results in typing `/ switching to Insert mode and inserting the letter 'A' on a new line, instead of searching the history. I tried to figure out the bug, but I couldn't. Removing SearchComplete fixes the problem.
This is an excerpt I saw from http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Script:474.
I was wondering if there is a workaround for this problem. Because both of these features ar so useful.

The last update of that plugin is from 2002; it's probably unmaintained if the author didn't respond to the feedback on the Vim Tips Wiki page.
You can try the alternative CmdlineComplete - complete command-line (: / etc.) plugin; this works well for me.
