How do I go to the next/previous search result when using the "find" feature?

[trymeouteh]

With GUI text editors, CTRL+F will open the find menu, you search something and there are arrow buttons to jump to the next or previous search result of the text you are searching for in a file.

How do you do this in micro? How do you go to the next or previous result?

Ctrl-N for next match, Ctrl-P for previous match.

ctrl-p just shows me what i searched previously. how can i cycle through results??

When you use Ctrl+f to search, press enter after you completed writing the search term to exit the buffer and then use Ctrl+p and Ctrl+n, you will be able to search through the results. Using Ctrl+p or Ctrl+n from the buffer(where you are entering search term) does not cycle through all the matches but through all used search terms.

Thanks pal. This is illogical but I'm glad I know.
