Search in files

[clason]

One thing I really miss from other viewers is the ability to search in files, ideally with the same shortcuts as less:

                         SEARCHING

  /pattern          *  Search forward for (N-th) matching line.
  ?pattern          *  Search backward for (N-th) matching line.
  n                 *  Repeat previous search (for N-th occurrence).
  N                 *  Repeat previous search in reverse direction.
  ESC-n             *  Repeat previous search, spanning files.
  ESC-N             *  Repeat previous search, reverse dir. & spanning files.
  ESC-u                Undo (toggle) search highlighting.
  &pattern          *  Display only matching lines
        ---------------------------------------------------
        A search pattern may be preceded by one or more of:
        ^N or !  Search for NON-matching lines.
        ^E or *  Search multiple files (pass thru END OF FILE).
        ^F or @  Start search at FIRST file (for /) or last file (for ?).
        ^K       Highlight matches, but don't move (KEEP position).
        ^R       Don't use REGULAR EXPRESSIONS.
 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Using ? for backward search would require moving the help shortcut to h as in less.)

would C-f be acceptable? As a vim user, I'd also like / and ?, but there's an argument for using "normy" shortcuts

Even youtube, gmail, google.com.. use / for search[0]; it doesn't get any more normy than that:)
