 is available in the mini-buffer.  An interrupt signal, as defined by the stty
 setting, will stop the search and go back to the original line.  An undefined
 key will have the same effect. The supported functions are:

-tt(clear-screen),
-tt(redisplay),
-tt(quoted-insert),
-tt(vi-quoted-insert),
-tt(accept-and-hold),

-tt(accept-line) and
-tt(accept-line-and-down-history).
 
-tt(magic-space) just inserts a space.

 When called from a widget function by the tt(zle) command, the incremental
 search commands can take a string argument.  This will be treated as a
