Fix for: In Emacs why can I not paste text C-y into a C-s search box?
Low Risk
Follow this pattern: Esc-W // To copy of the selected text into buffer Ctrl-s Then press return. Ctrl-y Then press return. // To paste selected text Then repeat Ctrl-s for incremental search. Similarly for decremental search, use Ctrl-r.
