I have the following:<br>
<br>
(global-set-key (kbd &quot;C-h&quot;) &#39;delete-backward-char)<br>
(global-set-key (kbd &quot;C-j&quot;) (kbd &quot;RET&quot;))<br>
<br>
How do I make this work in evil-mode&#39;s / (search)?<br>
<br>
Bonus points if anyone has the scoop on making it work in helm as well.<br>
