In Emacs, how to search in the whole file?

Viewed 564

Consider the following text file:

foo
bar
yoo
ploo

Imagine that I want to search the word foo and that my cursor in in the third line. I use C-s which calls isearch-forward, then input foo and press Enter: the issue is that by default, my cursor stays at the same position, unless I press C-s once again before pressing Enter. Indeed, I would like isearch-forward to move in the whole file, and not only the part of the file that is after the cursor. How could I do this ?
