I see.

I see.

Works fine. I can see that you're also using :redir and :map and
its brethren to get the mapping. As far as I can see, the current
release only searches the right-hand side of the mapping, though.

One observation:

if len(found_maps) > 0
echo join(found_maps, "\n")
else
echohl WarningMsg
echo "No such map"
echohl Normal
endif

Maybe "No matches found" would be a more suitable message here.

Thanks. All very helpful.
