Play sound on search wrap

[Lifepillar]

When performing a search, it's easy for me to miss the "search hit
BOTTOM, continuing at TOP" message because my attention is focused on
the matches. For this reason, I'd like a sound of my choice to be played
when the search wraps (using +sound). Is this possible?

Thanks,
Life.

No, don't see a way.

You could try a hack by calling a function that checks for v:warningmsg and reset it, in a "statusline" invoked function. Something like:

---

fu! CheckWrap()
    if v:warningmsg =~# "^search hit [BT]"
        "Ring bell
        exe "norm! \<Esc>"
    endif
    let v:warningmsg=""
endf

"call CheckWrap using standard statusline

set statusline=%<%f\ %h%m%r%=%-14.(%l,%c%V%)\ %P%{CheckWrap()}

---

The above should ring the bell (provided you did not disable it) on search wraps.

Aha, hackish, but that does work!
