Ranking issues #21

Closed outfoxxed closed 4 months ago

Dolphin is oddly prioritized, and emacs still shows over element when searching for element.

Three options that would greatly improve ranking quality are

  1. Associate which strings are used to open which programs, e.g. "el" goes to "Element" over "Emacs" even if emacs is used far more often
  2. Increase weighting of connected characters in the search results ("em" in "EMacs" over "em" in "filE Manager")
  3. Increase weighting of the first connected string of characters more than subsequent ones ("l" goes to "Libreoffice" over "doLphin")
