Hello, when I use Isearch with char folding enabled, the prompt changes very briefly at every character I type in. The actual prompt depends on the values of ‘lazy-count-*-format’ and ‘search-default-mode’ (if they all have their default value the prompt is ‘Pending char-fold I-search:…’; with the settings described below it’s just ‘I-search: …’, and it changes briefly to ‘Pending I-search: …’). Steps to reproduce: ------------------- Launch ‘Emacs -Q’, evaluate these forms (setq isearch-lazy-count t) (setq lazy-count-prefix-format nil lazy-count-suffix-format " [%s/%s]") (setq-local search-default-mode 'char-fold-to-regexp) (electric-quote-local-mode) and Isearch for something.
