Re: info: interactive search and regex patterns

[Karl Berry]

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

Strange.  Will investigate.

    Moreover, may I suggest that the prompt be changed from `I-search: '
    to, say `Regex-I-search: ' or similar, when the regex-mode is active,

Good idea.  Thanks.
