ido-next-match #41

Closed minrockli closed 11 years ago

minrockli commented 11 years ago

ido-next-match seems not working as I expected when doing substring matching.

Here is an example: we have four files under a directory with names: "aa-bb, aa-cc, aa-dd, aa-dd-ee". After typing "aa" for substring matching, only "aa-bb, aa-cc, aa-dd" are the candidates which means that they could be picked by clicking "ctrl-s" (ido-next matching). "aa-dd-ee" will never be picked as a candidate. Is it by design?

I cannot reproduce this from emacs -Q. How you're specifying "substring" matching? flx does not allow you to specify a matching method.

Perhaps "substring" matching is a wrong word. I think I found the problem. It works OK under emacs 24. But what I tried is on emacs 23. I will close this one.
