- Does anyone know how to get the functionality of the XEDIT "all"
- command inside emacs. You can use this command to narrow the focus of
- what you are editing to any lines that match a general search
- function. So if you were editing a program file and you did "all /else/"
- only lines that had an "else" in them would be displayed. This is
- very useful when editing programs and TeX files. And I would like to
- be able to do this within emacs.
