There's the following code in isearch.el: ;; Turned off because I find I expect to get the global definition--rms. ;; ;; Instead bind C-h to special help command for isearch-mode. ;; (define-key map "\C-h" 'isearch-mode-help) So it seems that Richard found it inconvenient. Could someone try and work out some clever way to reconcile the two functionalities? E.g. provide the generic help on C-h but the isearch-specific help on C-h C-h, or vice versa? Stefan
