title: How do I bind another key to isearch-forward in EMACS correctly?
body: <p>I swap between Windows and Linux frequently and constantly press <kbd>C-f</kbd> when I want to search in EMACS. Since I don't need <code>forward-char</code> that much, I decided to bind <kbd>C-f</kbd> to <code>isearch-forward</code> (default <kbd>C-s</kbd>) instead:</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-el prettyprint-override"><code>(global-set-key (kbd "C-f") 'isearch-forward)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, when I search for something and want to search forward again, <kbd>C-f</kbd> doesn't do that, it just starts a new search. <kbd>C-s</kbd> still searches forward again, though.</p>
  
  <p>What would be the correct way to bind <kbd>C-f</kbd> to <code>isearch-forward</code>?</p>
