Any tips for achieving this? I have this command --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- ;;;; Search the selected region (defun site/isearch-region (start end) "Start isearch with the contents between START and END." (interactive (if (use-region-p) (list (region-beginning) (region-end)) (user-error "No region"))) (when (and start end) (deactivate-mark) (isearch-mode t) (isearch-yank-string (buffer-substring start end)))) (global-set-key (kbd "M-s M-s") #'site/isearch-region) --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- that searches for whatever is selected. That also highlights every occurrence. > Regards, > Zhao
