Search doesn't work as expected: ignores tags, and case-sensitive #60

Closed FrancoisMalan closed 11 years ago

FrancoisMalan commented 11 years ago

On Windows, I have the following problems / unexpected behaviour:

1) Searching via Ctrl-F (search bar) only searches message content, but not the tags 2) Search is case sensitive, with no obvious way (except regex) to change behaviour

Both of these issues are frustrating to a casual user such as myself.

This is all deliberate and documented. :) See https://github.com/cpbotha/nvpy#keyboard-handling

I should probably change the "CS" checkbox to "Case-sensitive", that could help with your number 2 complaint. In the gstyle search mode, tag searching is done explicitly, with "t:thetag" or "tag:thetag"
