Hello,

When using NeoVim, if I am in Visual Mode, and I press '/' to search, I can extend the selection to the search result. Is there anything similar in Helix?

In Helix, when I try to do this, It changes the selection to the searched-for text., rather than extending it.

The only "workaround" I have found is to use fX and then repeatedly use Alt-. until it selects the right character.
