Navigation during search #53

Closed chrisduerr closed 6 years ago

chrisduerr commented 6 years ago

In vim it is possible to search using /text, this is already possible in this script. However after the search is completed, it's possible to use the shortcuts n and N to jump between results.

The default keybinds of weechat involve either the ctrl modifier or the arrows, so I think it would be beneficial to introduce a simple and vim-like n/N navigation to make it possible to jump through the search results with a single key.

Added in 76e2a03d4d4e29a9247cbd40e03486e689dc33b4, thanks for the suggestion. Please note that it comes with certain limitations due to the way WeeChat works, which is why it's optional and disabled by default.
