** Search and Replace
|

|
||||
*** `isearch' and `query-replace' can now perform character folding in matches.
|
||||
Isearch does that by default, while `query-replace' will do that if
|
||||
the new variable `replace-character-fold' is customized to a non-nil
|
||||
value. This is analogous to case folding, but instead of disregarding
|
||||
case variants, it disregards wider classes of distinctions between
|
||||
similar characters. (Case folding is a special case of character
|
||||
folding.) This means many characters in the search string will match
|
||||
entire groups of characters instead of just themselves.
|
||||
*** `isearch' and `query-replace' can now perform character folding in
|
||||
matches. Character folding is enabled by customizing
|
||||
`search-default-mode' to the value `character-fold-to-regexp'. You
|
||||
can also toggle character folding in the middle of a search by typing
|
||||
`M-s ''.
|
||||
|
||||
`query-replace' honors character folding this if the new variable
|
||||
`replace-character-fold' is customized to a non-nil value. This is
|
||||
analogous to case folding, but instead of disregarding case variants,
|
||||
it disregards wider classes of distinctions between similar
|
||||
characters. (Case folding is a special case of character folding.)
|
||||
This means many characters in the search string will match entire
|
||||
groups of characters instead of just themselves.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, the " will match all variants of double quotes (like “
|
||||
and ”), and the letter a will match all of its accented cousins, even
|
||||
those composed of multiple characters, as well as many other symbols
|
||||
like ℀, ℁, ⒜, and ⓐ.
|
||||
|
||||
Character folding is enabled by customizing `search-default-mode' to
|
||||
the value `character-fold-to-regexp'. If you want to turn character
|
||||
folding off, customize the value of `search-default-mode' to the `nil'
|
||||
value. You can also toggle character folding in the middle of a
|
||||
search by typing `M-s ''.
|
||||
|

+++
|
||||
*** New user option `search-default-mode'.
|
||||
This option specifies the default mode for Isearch. The default
|
||||
value, `character-fold-to-regexp' specifies that Isearch should fold
|
||||
characters when searching.
|
||||
value, nil specifies that Isearch does not fold characters when
|
||||
searching.
