Re: Is there an easier way to jump to the same word?

[Le Wang]

I use highlight symbols to highlight same symbols, and jump between them.  It chooses rainbow colors automatically and makes it much easier to follow some key variables through a block of code.

My fork https://github.com/lewang/highlight-symbol.el allows you to use arbitrary region as a "symbol".

Often times I find that I want to jump to another occurrence of the word-under-point, almost always variables or functions. I end up going to the beginning of the word with M-b, doing isearch-forward with C-s, adding all the words until the full word is the search term with C-w a bunch of times, and finally C-s to jump around to other instances of it.

Is there a better way to do this?
