Evil implementation?

[dmitrym0]

Does anyone know how to get this to work with evil?

I tried:

  (use-package evil
    :ensure t
    :demand t
    :after swiper
    :general
    ([remap evil-ex-search-word-forward] 'symbol-overlay-switch-forward)
   ....

But hitting * results in: user-error: No more forward symbols.

You should perhaps be using symbol-overlay-jump-next instead.
