I'm sure there must be a way to permanently change the Emacs's search
options so that C-s always searches word by word and not one letter at
a time, as I type. They key word here is permanently. I know it can be
done using C-s Enter, but I'd like Emacs to do this using C-s instead.

Thanks for any assistance you can offer.
