Subject: Request for Enhancement: C-y in Isearch mode should yank to next EOL.
Date: Sun, 26 Sep 2004 09:24:04 +0000 (GMT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.3.96.1040926090233.494A-100000@acm.acm> (raw)
Hi, Emacs!
In Isearch mode, C-y yanks the text up to the end of the current line.
If point is already at EOL (e.g., you've just done a C-y), C-y does
nothing. This is not useful.
I propose that C-y should instead yank to the next EOL, so that repeated
`C-y's yank succesive lines. Here is a patch which does this:
2004-09-26 Alan Mackenzie <acm@muc.de>
* isearch.el (isearch-yank-line): C-y yanks to next EOL, not end
of current line.
