I would type C-s C-s C-y. Now, to do that, I have to exit the search in some other way. But how? Nothing pops into my mind. I know that RET exits a search nowadays, but I have to pose the question mentally to find that answer. I am more likely to type C-f C-b, or some other no-op editing command. -- Dr Richard Stallman Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
