[feature]: Ability to search for shortcut by description

[thorntonjonathanxu]

Proposal

Include a text box at the bottom of the window that a user can type in a command to search for it in the list. For any options that match, highlight them.

Alternatives

Add a toggle (access via keyboard shortcut) while app is active and allows user to type out the description. Show the current searched parameters in the bottom section next to "KeyClu" icon.

• If user presses Esc once, clear search results
• If Esc triggered twice, suppress/close window
• If user presses the toggle again, it clears out the input and returns to the regular state.

It looks like this may be an existing feature or potentially deprecated feature as the readme include an example of this feature functionality.

For reference this is what my current instance looks like when looking up bookmarks on Google Chrome

This is on a M4 Macbook Pro running Sequoia 15.2.

Hey thorntonjonathanxu, The requested feature does exist, but it currently has limited support regarding how the filter works, and it's not entirely stable enough. If you'd still like to try it, you can follow the instructions provided in wiki: https://github.com/Anze/KeyCluCask/wiki/Experimental-Features

Are there any news on this topic? I'd would be great being able to narrow down the result list.

i'm using the feature.....super useful....the short cut to enable the field so that you can type/search seems to be contingent on how many shortcuts the mac os app is making available....so, for a super simples app, I'm asked to do cmf+F....for a simple app, i'm asked to do shift+cmd+F and those work.

For Safari and BBedit which have a crazy amount of menu shortcuts, I'm asked to do ctr+shift+cmd+F and that does not work.

can i make the suggestion that you just let the user click on the search field to allow them to start typing to search for the desciption?
