branch: master
commit ece7425c22633196ae164cb6aa0e6d77fabe9f81
Author: Augusto Stoffel <arstoffel@gmail.com>
Commit: Juri Linkov <juri@linkov.net>
Reduce flicker in Isearch mode
Lazy highlighting now happens immediately when the search string is at
least as long as the value of the new custom variable
`lazy-highlight-no-delay-length`. Also avoid updating the lazy
count in the echo area too often.
* isearch.el (lazy-highlight-no-delay-length): New defcustom.
* isearch.el (lazy-lazy-count-format): Avoid a momentarily incorrect
count when reversing search direction.
* isearch.el (isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop): Avoid a call to
`isearch-message` that is quickly succeed by a second echo area
update, thus causing flicker.
* isearch.el (isearch-lazy-highlight-new-loop):
Start lazy highlight immediately if appropriate.
* etc/NEWS: Announce the change.
* doc/emacs/search.texi: Document `lazy-highlight-no-delay-length'.

+Lazy highlighting of matches in Isearch now starts immediately if the

+still applies for shorter search strings, which avoids flicker in the
