No, apparently not, in this context - my bad.  My Emacs session
must have been in an altered state when it showed that behavior.

So presumably the only problem was the OP not understanding that
`C-q 213' (with or without `RET' after it) is done while searching,
i.e., after `C-s'.

So again, perhaps the doc should make sure that this is clear.
