Variable: lazy-highlight-buffer

lazy-highlight-buffer is a customizable variable defined in isearch.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

Controls the lazy-highlighting of the full buffer.

When non-nil, all text in the buffer matching the current search string is highlighted lazily (see lazy-highlight-initial-delay, lazy-highlight-interval and lazy-highlight-buffer-max-at-a-time). This is useful when lazy-highlight-cleanup(var)/lazy-highlight-cleanup(fun) is customized to nil and doesn't remove full-buffer highlighting after a search.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 27.1.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 27.1.
