Yes, it's quite easy, although in a strange place.  To change the things
in the file search.c, in the routine readpattern(), (in 3.7 NOT i, line 255)
change the line that reads:

<	s = mlreplyt(tpat, tpat, NPAT, 27);  /* Read pattern */

to:

>	s = mlreplyt(tpat, tpat, NPAT, '\n');  /* Read pattern (PWP: was 27) */

in iseach.c, change the #define for IS_QUIT to whatever you like
(0x1B is ESC).
