The easiest solution would probably be to change the two functions to use the same last-search variable instead of two different ones. The only downside to this is if someone out there uses both search functions and enjoys having a different search default in each one. I personally see no problem with combining them.

Type Ctrl-R twice and it will start a new search with the previous search string. ..wayne..
