Hi,
you want
,----[ C-h k C-s ]
| C-s runs the command isearch-forward
| which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `isearch.el'.
| It is bound to C-s, <menu-bar> <edit> <search> <i-search> <isearch-forward>.
| (isearch-forward &optional REGEXP-P NO-RECURSIVE-EDIT)
|
| Do incremental search forward.
| With a prefix argument, do an incremental regular expression search instead.
|
| As you type characters, they add to the search string and are found.
| The following non-printing keys are bound in `isearch-mode-map'.
|
| [...]
`----
and
,----[ C-h k C-r ]
| C-r runs the command isearch-backward
| which is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `isearch.el'.
| It is bound to C-r, <menu-bar> <edit> <search> <i-search> <isearch-backward>.
| (isearch-backward &optional REGEXP-P NO-RECURSIVE-EDIT)
|
| Do incremental search backward.
| With a prefix argument, do a regular expression search instead.
| See C-s for more information.
`----
This highlights all matches when searching. If you want the highlighting
permanently, try
,----[ C-h f highlight-regexp RET ]
| highlight-regexp is an alias for `hi-lock-face-buffer' in `hi-lock.el'.
| It is bound to <menu-bar> <edit> <hi-lock> <highlight-regexp>.
| (highlight-regexp REGEXP &optional FACE)
|
| Set face of each match of REGEXP to FACE.
|
| Interactively, prompt for REGEXP then FACE. Buffer-local history
| list maintained for regexps, global history maintained for faces.
| Use M-n and M-p to retrieve next or previous history item.
| (See info node `Minibuffer History'.)

Regards,
Tassilo
