while you're about it, i've thought for a while it'd be nice to have a
"Lookw" command to look for whole words only, so I can easily search
for single-letter variable names in my programs...

the only current alternative as far as i can see is something like:

:/(^|[^\\0-9a-zA-Z_])e($|[^0-9a-zA-Z_])

to search for "e", which is a bit like hard work.
