I copied minibuf-isearch.el from the browser to
/etc/emacs21/minibuf-isearch.el
put (requrie 'minibuf-isearch) in my /.emacs
M-x C-r
M-x (isearch) [shell] then type m but it does not bring up the command
which has the letter m in it.

       I copied minibuf-isearch.el from the browser to
       /etc/emacs21/minibuf-isearch.el

I'm pretty new myself but shouldn't you just mv it to site-lisp/ ?

    put (requrie 'minibuf-isearch) in my /.emacs
    
If you spelled require that way, then you need to correct it.

    M-x C-r
    M-x (isearch) [shell] then type m but it does not bring up the command
    which has the letter m in it.  

See ya, Baloff.

I don't know, I did that as well for no avail.

no, it is a typo here only.

Hello
is there a way to search the command line as you type each char and 
display the result so you can execute the found command with similar 
ease as the shell
$C-r start typing <RET>

thanks
