Ability to toggle search panel by a hotkey #91

Open ishovkun opened 6 years ago

I'd like to fine-tune atom commander for a vim-like navigation (example file managers: ranger, vifm). I am missing a command to toggle a search panel by a hotkey and jumping between matches by keys.

When you just start typing, the best match will get highlighted and will update when a better match is found as you continue to type. For now this is the only search functionality available.

If I do add search functionality like this, though, I can't guarantee that it will be exactly vim-like. With Atom at least one will be able to assign one's own hotkeys for toggling the search panel and navigating the search results.

No need to make it exactly like vim.the thing is, I set various letter keys for navigation, which inhibits searching words starting from the corresponding letters.
