Subject: bug#24914: 24.5; isearch-regexp: wrong error message
Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2016 14:29:45 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7c208ac0-8aa2-4db8-a38d-760f91c50500@default> (raw)

Do this in a large file:

1. C-M-s \(.\|^J\)+

That shows the error message: [error Stack overflow in regexp matcher].
OK, understandable.

2. C-M-s \(.\|^J\)\{,4000\}, where ^J is really a newline char, typed by
using `C-q C-j'.

No problem with that search.

3. C-M-s \(.\|^J\)\{,40000\}

That shows the error message: [incomplete input], which is wrong, IMO.
