When we use / to search some word, the highlight characters to jump is shown at the end of the currently matched pattern, like the following example.
I wonder if it is possible that the highlight character can be shown at the end of the currently matched pattern.
The reason to do that is when there are some variables have similar (and weird) names, but we are not familiar to them. For instance, if we would like to search a variable maintain, as shown in the figure below, to search efficiently, we may additionally type a in / to differ from mantenance.
If we are not familiar to the set of similar variable names (i.e., we do not know the next character), the highlight character shown at the end will hide the next character to reduce efficiency that narrowing down the "jumping" candidates.
NOTE: The highlight character which is shown at the beginning is fine because, in this example, to search maintain we have already known that the first character is m.
