It would in my opinion be more convenient if these functions just return nil and showed a message when a search fails. Would it not be a good convention for interactive search functions in Emacs?I think the better answer is to create a new error class called `user-error' which would be then added to debug-ignored-errors. Then we can replace most elements of debug-ignored-errors by changing the signalling code so as to signal a `user-error' rather than an `error'. But that's for post-22. Stefan
Yes, that is good.
