;;; Commentary:

;; This file adds more dimensions to the search space.  It implements
;; various features that extend isearch.  One of them is an ability to
;; search through multiple buffers.

(defvar isearch-buffers-next-buffer-function nil
  "Function to call to get the next buffer to search.

When this variable is set to a function that returns a buffer, then
after typing another \\[isearch-forward] or \\[isearch-backward] \
at a failing search, the search goes
to the next buffer in the series and continues searching for the
next occurrence.

The first argument of this function is the current buffer where the
search is currently searching.  It defines the base buffer relative to
which this function should find the next buffer.  When the isearch
direction is backward (when `isearch-forward' is nil), this function
should return the previous buffer to search.  If the second argument of
this function WRAP is non-nil, then it should return the first buffer
in the series; and for the backward search, it should return the last
buffer in the series.")
