Hello,


As I was using the last version of Emacs (27.0.50) , I noticed something that could be improved. I’m explaining :

First type C – h ? to open the Metahelp window.

Then write C – s to enable searching.

Instead of searching in the Metahelp window, the Metahelp window closes.

This is an actual bug registered as #19655 in the https://debbugs.gnu.org<https://debbugs.gnu.org/>.


Therefore I’ve decided that I could help to fix that issue.

Look forward for the patch of the corrected bug.


The function search-forward-help-for-help in the help.el allows to reasearch in the * Metahelp * window.


I look forward for your response from you soon.


Thanks.
