Bug: Acme: Searching command works differently from Sam

[spektrokalter]

The command is '/' (forward slash). It works differently and sometimes unpredictably. I have found a few cases to demonstrate.

1. -+;-+

In Sam, this command expands the beginning of a selection to its line. In Acme, it selects one line before. Acme's behavior also seems counterintuitive.

2. /echo/+;.

In Sam, this command selects one line below "echo." In Acme, it selects the word itself. Again, feels counterintuitive.

3. /echo/++;.

Sam selects second line below "echo". Acme selects first line below "echo". I'm not sure who's right on this one.

4. -+-#0

In Sam, it selects the beginning of the current line. In Acme, it selects the beginning of one line above the current one. Again, feels counterintuitive.

5. -+-#1

In Sam, it selects the end of the one line above the current one. In Acme, it selects the end of the second line above the current one.

6. /foo/ -+

Notice the space between /foo/ and -+. In Sam, it selects the whole line on which "foo" is found. In Acme, this command does not work.

7. /https/;+-#1

In Sam, it selects the beginning of the next URL to the end of the line on which it's found. In Acme, it produces "addresses out of order" in +Errors.
