Hey there, Emacs-Hackers!
Sorry, I accidentally sent this post before it was finished... Here is
the correct version:
I am trying enhance my grep wrapper with the common logic that propose
a default argument like
Grep for string (some-default-string):
preferrably using (thing-at-point 'symbol)
and that it defaults to this "some-default-string" when I press return
only.
I thought the following code should work but it doesn't
(read-from-minibuffer "Grep for string: " nil nil nil nil "default"
nil)
Do I need to use an alternative to read-from-minibuffer() or have I
missed
something?
Many thanks in advance,
Per Nordlöw
