Case insensitive search in copy mode

[Danny Colligan]

Hello,

Is there any way to do a case-insensitive search in screen's copy
mode?  The / and ? commands only seem to do case-sensitive searches.
(Or, for bonus points, is there any way to use regular expressions to
search in copy mode?)

Thanks in advance,

Danny Colligan

There's an "ignorecase on" screenrc directive.

I, too, would welcome regex support. It's one of the few remaining
differences between screen's copy-mode and a usable vi. It was a bit
jarring the first time I discovered I couldn't use [Aa] or .
