[PTRun] plugin activation commands in search results

Open AkazaRenn opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Add plugin activation commands in search results, searching plugin names will show them as one of the results. Use calculator for example, searching "Calculator" will give the activation command of calculator as one of the results, selecting this result will update the input by that command ("=") for further user input.

Scenario when this would be used?

It's for those who have a lot of plugins enabled but cannot remember all the activation commands.

@AkazaRenn This feature exists in a slightly different way. There is a setting to show the plugin help if the search query is empty. If you enable it and open Run without having 'remember last query' option enabled, it shows the help.

Does this fits to your needs?

I am aware such a feature exists but still feel it would be nice to have my request implemented. However, it's always up to the devs to decide!
