Subject: bug#21148: 25.0.50; Huge problems with case-insensitive search
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 10:44:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <86pp3chdsh.fsf@example.com> (raw)
As you can see on the screencast http://screencast.com/t/nq7xkfJiy,
case-insensitive [1] searches are becoming very fuzzy to me.
Sample text file:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Let's search for all case-insensitive occurrences of "workingd"...
#+begin_src shell :var workingDir=(file-name-directory (buffer-file-name))
# No init file.
cmd="$EMACS -q -l ${workingDir}.init.el"
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Recipe:
- Incremantally search (with `C-s') for "workingd"
Problems:
- While point is at the beginning of the buffer, and while the string
"workingd" exists in the buffer, Isearch tells me from the start that
it fails finding my pattern!??
- As the search is case-insensitive, `C-s' should allow me to cycle
between the 3 strings found (1 "workingd" and 2 "workingD"), but it
finally only finds the exact match "workingd".
Note -- Anzu correctly reports me (in the modeline) that there are
3 found strings...
