Vim/Perl syntax, backwards search with ? not considering ignore case switch

Pressing '?' to do a backwards search and adding the /i does not work.
For example: ?some_string/i
Forward search with '/' does work.
For example /some_string/i

Also, vim with vim syntax backward search works:
?some_string\c

I haven't tried other switches.

I made the same mistake as you.

When you use ? you need to use ? to terminate the string and then specify the options.

?some_string?i

I tested the above and it works.

I should also mention that

?some_string\c

Works in SlickEdit as long as your regex syntax is configured for Vim syntax. Tools>Options>Editing>Search and set "Regular expression syntax" to Vim.

Ah, didn't know the termination had to be the same character. Thanks!
