  point, just as a forward search finds matches that begin after it.
  
    The characters @kbd{C-y} and @kbd{C-w} can be used in incremental
! search to grab text from the buffer into the search string.  This makes
! it convenient to search for another occurrence of text at point.
! @kbd{C-w} copies the word after point as part of the search string,
! advancing point over that word.  Another @kbd{C-s} to repeat the search
! will then search for a string including that word.  @kbd{C-y} is similar
! to @kbd{C-w} but copies all the rest of the current line into the search
! string.  Both @kbd{C-y} and @kbd{C-w} convert the text they copy to
! lower case if the search is currently not case-sensitive; this is so the
! search remains case-insensitive.
  
    The character @kbd{M-y} copies text from the kill ring into the search
  string.  It uses the same text that @kbd{C-y} as a command would yank.
