264	Search bug with manpages bold/underlined text	egmont	slavazanko	"Occasionally when you do a simple search (F7) in mc's built-in viewer while viewing a manual page, it doesn't find some yellow or red (""bold"" or ""underlined"") text.

Patch attached to fix the problem.

Example test case: See the attached file that contains ""abababc"" in bold (that is, each letter followed by a backspace, then the same letter again). Search for ""ababc"" and it won't match that string, though it should.

Explanation (line numbers according to 4.6.2):
In src/util.c: _icase_search() line 812-815 you increase ""e"" (the haystack pointer) and ""dlng"" (counitng characters that were skipped because of a backspace) every time you skip a character and the subsequent backspace in the haystack. Later, in line 819, if the partial match turns out not to be a complete one, you rewind the haystack pointer by the number of chars matched from the needle (""d - text""). This, however, forgets about the forward steps that were taken in haystack because of the backspaces. So next time the substring match starts from the wrong position.
