I have forgotten what these fns assigned to F keys are for . .

People,

I have these in my .vimrc file:

nnoremap <F9> :let @/=escape(getline('.')[col('.')-1], '.~\\')<cr>
nnoremap <F10> :let @/.=escape(getline('.')[col('.')-1], '.~\\')<cr>

I didn't get very far doing a lot of Googling, but from experimenting
with them I found F9 puts the current character under the cursor into
the "/" register but F10 opens the file menu on my xfce4-term ! What
is:

'.~\\'

supposed to do?

Thanks (I am putting comments into my .vimrc file as I write this . . ),

Phil.
