A lot of times I need to search for a string that I have just moved to the kill-ring (or, in my case, actually just the clipboard). So what I do is C-s, C-y, or C-s, H-v, where H-v is mapped to cua- paste. Neither variant gives me the expected result.
Why can I not paste something into the minibuffer? Can I enable this somehow? C-h c C-s -> C-s runs the command isearch-forward C-h f RET isearch-forward RET isearch-forward is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `isearch'. ... <lots of interesting stuff deleted>... Type M-y to yank last killed text onto end of search string and search for it. ... _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
