Asterisk (*) should start a new search

[bmatzelle]

The asterisk (*) support added as part of this ticket does not simulate Vim behavior. Hitting the * key should start a typical (/) search. What it is doing now is just moving the cursor to the next matching word under the cursor. So it should do the following:

• Start a new search (clearing the previous search in the process) for the word located under the cursor.
• Enable the use of the "n" and "N" keys to move forward and backward, respectively.

I am running Visual Studio on macOS Mojave with Vim 0.65.0.80.

Well. I just learnt something new today :)

Great. Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Fixed in 0.65.2

It works! This gives me a big productivity boost. Thanks!
