Subject: Use text in emacs buffer to populate command window
Date: Mon, 18 Feb 2013 10:25:22 -0800 (PST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1361211922783-278645.post@n5.nabble.com> (raw)
If I run a search in emacs I can C-s then c-w repeatedly to search for text
under the current cursor position. But if I use a diffierent command I
can't always use C-w. eg I use m-x highlight-regexp I want to also grab the
text under the cursor. How do I do that?
