Very bad search results #12

Open alexchandel opened 8 years ago

For example, arr matches ARABIC RAY before ARROW. The same thing used to happen with Atom's Command+P command prompt. This needs to use the new search method that prioritizes whole matches.

In addition, searching 'alpha greek' gives nothing, while 'greek alpha' gives the character you'd expect.

Order SHOULD be taken into account in assigning result priority, however, the order of search terms should not exclude results.

alexchandel commented 7 years ago

Command+P has better search order now, you should use the same alg they use.

The fix for alexchandel's request is really simple: Swapping the fuzzaldrin library with fuzzaldrin-plus, which is exactly what Atom did with its fuzzy-finder.

Should the old scoring algorithm be kept as an option?

alexchandel commented 7 years ago

Probably not.

kellertuer commented 7 years ago

It would really be nice to have that, since I would like to use it for greek letters and always typing greek alpha is not so nice...
