Is it possible to page up/down in Vim without moving the cursor

gvimvim

Is it possible to move to another page in gVim without moving the cursor from its present location?

Splits don't count 🙂

No, the way that Vim functions internally (and also due to historical reasons) means that cursor must always be visible.

If you used this plugin, you can simply enable the functionality

then use a NumPad key to assign a colour to that word everywhere without moving your cursor.

You can use many different highlights at once for many different words, or more complex search patterns if you wish.

The way I solve that is to set the 'virtualedit' option:

:set virtualedit=all
