I wonder if this can be used to display the isearch prompt while searching the minibuffer contents? Currently the isearch prompt completely overwrites the minibuffer contents. I imagine using `minibuffer-message-at-end' to append the isearch prompt to the minibuffer contents. For example, with the minibuffer: Eval: (setq foo 'bar) typing `C-s foo' will display: Eval: (setq foo 'bar) [I-search backward: foo] and `foo' will be highlighted in `isearch' face, as usual. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/ _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
