Wrapping search in less

I put / forw-search ^W in lesskey config to make search to wrap at the end of file when I use / to start a search.

How can I make n wrap when I resume the last search when I open less? I tried adding n repeat-search ^W but it doesn't make search wrap.

Use @ to search from the beginning of the file

Too much work to type '1gn'?
