Ok, I thought that "C-s", when invoked from the minibuffer, was intended to search _only_ through the minibuffer history (like "M-s"/"M-r" do), not also in the current minibuffer text. I should have read info node "(emacs)Isearch Minibuffer" before submitting this bug report, sorry. Now that I understand it, I'd like this bug report to become a feature request: IMO, It isn't worth making C-s (and C-r, C-M-s, C-M-r) look up also in the current minibuffer text, because it is usually small enough not to need that (how often do you use that feature?). I'd like these commands (C-s, C-r, C-M-s, C-M-r) to be similar to M-s and M-r: * Focus exclusively in the minibuffer history. * Have a minibuffer-specific prompt ("Next/Previous element matching [regexp]: ") so that it is clear what's going on. * Obviously, clear the minibuffer's previous input. -- Dani Moncayo
