Feature request: Full-text searches

[achamess]

I love this package, but I'm still finding it difficult to access my notes in the ways I want to. I like how The Archie has an omni-search bar that searches within notes and not just in the title. The Ag driven search looks at titles of notes, but not their internal contents. It'd be nice to pull up notes based on what is inside them. Do you think this is possible? My current hack is to index my ZK from Devonthink and use its very powerful search features. @renerocksai

hi, thx for your suggestions, but I'm wondering: isn't full-text-search one of SublimeText's strengths?

or is sublimetexts's search result window not useful enough?

I'd be interested in your thoughts on that.

best, rene

Hey @renerocksai Thanks for the reply.

Well the full-text search is regex right? Can I do complex boolean searches like "term 1" AND "term 2" AND NOT "term 3"? Also, I like how your tag searches pulls up an ordered list of notes. It would be nice to do that with full-text searches and not just tag searches.

Basically, could one do what your advanced tag search function does but with full text search?

Also, speaking of. My advanced tag search continues to not work, despite updating to the most recent version. Sorry for the trouble.
