Hi all, I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug, or as a simple incompatibility: using `repeat' to run `isearch-forward-exit-minibuffer' confuses isearch. Recipe: After starting emacs -Q with the following text and running the following commands, isearch is not active but its overlays are still visible: abcdef abcdef abcdef abcdef C-s b C-s C-x z C-f The second C-s is not entirely necessary: C-s b C-x z C-f also fails to clear isearch's overlays Cheers, Clément.
