Hi all,
The man page says:
history-search-backward
Search backward through the history for the string of
characters
between the start of the current line and the point. This is
a
non-incremental search.
That's not completely clear.. I think the following makes it much clearer:
history-search-backward
Search backward through the history for [ a line starting with
]
the string of characters between the start of the current line
and
the point. This is a non-incremental search.
The same goes for history-search-forward.
