there.  In Transient Mark mode, incremental search sets the mark without
activating it, and does so only if the mark is not already active.

  @kbd{M-%} typed in incremental search invokes @code{query-replace}
or @code{query-replace-regexp} (depending on search mode) with the
current search string used as the string to replace.

@cindex lazy search highlighting
@vindex isearch-lazy-highlight
  When you pause for a little while during incremental search, it
highlights all other possible matches for the search string.  This

or @kbd{C-r} to repeat the search.  The short delay before highlighting
other matches helps indicate which match is the current one.
If you don't like this feature, you can turn it off by setting
@code{isearch-lazy-highlight} to @code{nil}.

@vindex isearch-lazy-highlight-face
@cindex faces for highlighting search matches
  You can control how this highlighting looks by customizing the faces
@code{isearch} (used for the current match) and
@code{isearch-lazy-highlight-face} (for all the other matches).

@vindex isearch-mode-map
  To customize the special characters that incremental search understands,
alter their bindings in the keymap @code{isearch-mode-map}.  For a list
of bindings, look at the documentation of @code{isearch-mode} with

word-delimiter characters.

@kindex C-M-%
@findex query-replace-regexp
  @kbd{C-M-%} performs regexp search and replace (@code{query-replace-regexp}).

  The characters you can type when you are shown a match for the string
or regexp are:

@ignore @c Not worth it.

@cindex faces for highlighting search matches
  You can control how this highlighting looks by customizing the faces
@code{isearch} (used for the current match) and @code{lazy-highlight}
(for all the other matches).  The latter is also used for other matches
inside @code{query-replace}.

alter their bindings in the keymap @code{isearch-mode-map}.  For a list

@kindex C-M-%
@findex query-replace-regexp
  @kbd{C-M-%} performs regexp search and replace (@code{query-replace-regexp}).
It works like @code{replace-regexp} except that it queries
like @code{query-replace}.

@cindex faces for highlighting query replace
  These commands highlight the current match using the face
@code{query-replace}.  They highlight other matches using
@code{lazy-highlight} just like incremental search (@pxref{Incremental
Search}).

  The characters you can type when you are shown a match for the string
or regexp are:

@ignore @c Not worth it.
