It helps to understand what does this mean after putting a single letter "i" in front of the word "is", e.g. by putting this first line in the *scratch* buffer: ;; i This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation. and typing the same key sequence `C-< C-M-s i s *'. "Pending" is necessary for Isearch to go back to the first shorter match.
