title: Find character under cursor in vim
body: <p>In vim, how can I find the next occurrence of the character under the cursor? I want something like * but for a single character instead of a word.</p>
  
  <p>Example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>H|o|w are you?
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>goes to:</p>
  
  <pre><code>How are y|o|u?
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The reason I want it is because there is a strange looking character (one that I don't even know how to type) all over my file and I want to remove them all quickly.</p>
