search-defaults-from: preference variable

Default value: 1

This variable controls what initial search string appears when you use a searching command like incremental-search or query-replace.

If 0, Epsilon never provides an initial search string.

If 1, whenever there's a region highlighted when you invoke the search command, that becomes the initial search string; in other cases there's no initial search string. The highlighted region is ignored when it's very long, a macro is running, the typing-deletes-highlight variable is zero, or Epsilon has been set to restrict searching to a highlighted region with search-in-region or replace-in-region.

If 2, the search string from the previous searching command is always the initial search string.
