Re: info: interactive search and regex patterns

[Karl Berry]

    it is not possible to use, say, backslash or brackets to
    escape regex-active characters: `a\.', or `a[.]'.

I think this is somewhat fixed now.  The messages are not optimal, and
the searching seemed quite slow sometimes, but I don't want to spend
more time on it now.  (As always, better patches welcome from anyone
interested in working on Info.)

I changed the prompt too.

Thanks for the report, Ralf.
