Just a quick post about a short note from Marcin Borkowski (mbork) concerning searching for the thing at point. Despite using Emacs for over 18 years I didn’t know about isearch-forward-thing-at-point.
As mbork says, it does just what it says. You invoke it with Meta+s Meta+. and it searches forward for whatever the point is on. This is something I want to do all the time and I was vaguely aware that it was possible but didn’t know exactly how to do it, so I’m really glad to see mbork’s post.
Finding out about this now serves to emphasize that learning Emacs really is a lifelong journey.
