if you do a search, the target string appears on line 3 ;
if you then enter `n' , the search `finds' the same occurrence
& moves the display up by 1 line.  it's probably a simple matter
of telling it to start its search at the current occurrence,
not at the top of the screen: probably 1 place in the source.
