always

I'm pretty sure it asks for a directory, not a file glob

EDIT: there's a possibility that it juts didn't match anything. Or that your file glob isn't right. I'll try to reproduce later

Yeah so I'm pretty sure Atom thinks you're searching for the directory named /some/random/thing/so/long/*.php instead of a glob... probably a bug.

You should probably report this in the atom/find-and-replace package

@MeerKatDev Find and replace works as expected. The directory/subdirectory search works with paths relative to the project opened. A good subdirectory search in your case would be src/*.php which works as you would expect.

@ThatXliner this is definitely not a bug but expected behaviour for the find and replace package.
