I don't really want to get into this thread. Been there, done that. I'll just say (once more) what I do, FWIW. I have a top-level Search menu - it's not under Edit. On the Search menu, I have all of the search and replace stuff, as well as all of the "goto" stuff. (The entries shown here with `>' are submenus.) -------------------- Incremental Search > Replace > Grep... Occurrences... Tags > Bookmarks > Go To > -------------------- The last one is just the vanilla Go To catchall. I didn't bother to do anything with it, so it still duplicates the tags stuff - someday I'll remove the tags stuff from Go To. I do still have non-incremental search stuff on the Search menu also, but I agree that it could go away. Here's how I present the non-incremental stuff: ------------------ String Forward... Backward... Regexp Forward... Backward... Word Forward... Backward... ------------------ Repeat Forward Backward ------------------ The Incremental Search submenu looks similar, but without the Word and Repeat items. (Yes, it could reasonably have Word items too.) The Replace submenu looks like this: ---------------- Query String Regexp... Map... Tags... (again: M-,) ---------------- Global String... Regexp ---------------- The Tags submenu looks like this: ---------------------------- Find Tag... Find Next Tag ---------------------------- Find Tag Regexp... Search Tagged Files... Continue Tags Search/Replace ---------------------------- Tags Apropos... Set Tags File Name... ---------------------------- For buffers such as Dired, I have no Edit menu; just the Search menu. [I also have Icicles submenus for the Search, Tags, and Bookmarks menus.]
