vr doesn't start auto-highlighting when typing search or replace expressions #22

Closed kaushalmodi closed 9 years ago

kaushalmodi commented 9 years ago

Lately I have noticed that vr/query-replace doesn't highlight the search/replace expressions in the buffer in real time. After each edit to the search or replace expression, I need to keep on hitting C-c a to see the updated highlighting. This happens even when the buffer has one line and I have set the feedback limit to nil.

It works for me. What is your exact setup? Have you tried running it without any other configurations (emacs -q)?

I apologize. This issue can be closed. I restarted emacs as normal (without -q) and I am unable to replicate this issue. I probably updated something and kept on using the same emacs sessions without restarting.
