-Occur.  Prompts for a regexp and shows a sparse tree with all matches.
-If the match is in a headline, the headline is made visible.  If the
-match is in the body of an entry, headline and body are made visible.
-In order to provide minimal context, also the full hierarchy of
-headlines above the match is shown, as well as the headline following
-the match.  Each match is also highlighted; the highlights disappear
-when the buffer is changed by an editing command, or by pressing
-@kbd{C-c C-c}.  When called with a @kbd{C-u} prefix argument, previous
-highlights are kept, so several calls to this command can be stacked.
