Subject: bug#10705: 24.0.93; Collect strings matching regexp from Isearch
Date: Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:02:03 +0200

Currently `isearch-occur' is not in sync with the interactive specification
of `occur' that provides a new feature of `C-u M-x occur RET' that collects
the matching strings into the `*Occur*' buffer without line numbers.

The following patch syncs code from `occur-read-primary-args' to `isearch-occur'.

It doesn't quit Isearch when there are no subexpression in the regexp
(it collects the entire match with "\\&").

But in case of subexpression in the regexp, it quits Isearch because
it needs to ask for a substituted replacement string using `read-string'.
