Alas!  On half of the terminals around here it takes three fingers to
type ^^.  For search-forward that is not reasonable.  Furthermore, we
have historically used ^\ for expand-mlisp-variable.  I am setting up
the local defaults as:
	expand-mlisp-variable	^\
	quote-character		^^
	search-forward		^]
Altho there is some sense to using ^\ for quote, I think
expand-mlisp-variable is used more.  Besides, if you squint your eyes
just right the ^^ looks like a quote :-).

Thanks for the responses
