go backward when deleting searched string

Open cdevelopper opened this issue 11 years ago • 0 comments

Hello,

Would it be possible to have an option that goes backward on the search when deleting some characters of the search string ?

Maybe an example will be more explicit : you're at line 150, looking incrementally for the string "buffer" : you start typing b, then u, then f (twice), and find what you were looking for at line 300. Now, you would like to go back to where you started your search, and you start deleting the string you wrote, but you stay at line 300, while I would find it useful to have the possibility to go back (incrementally, of course :) )

This incremental behaviour is the one in vim (and emacs I think) if you would like to try (open a file in vim and type :set incsearch).

And by the way, thanks for glance, it's really a great plugin
