Subject: Highlight escape character sequences in isearch and query-replace
Date: Sat, 05 Sep 2009 00:14:38 +0300

Normally characters sequences using `^' are displayed in the
`escape-glyph' face.  However, in isearch and query-replace that both
use `isearch-text-char-description' it is hard to distinguish
escape character sequences visually because they are not highlighted.
Here is a fix:
