[Improvement] Open file from project with last searched filename #278

Open ghost opened 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

Hi, could you please consider to show last searched filename in Open File From Project command?

Usage:

  1. I press Ctrl+P and I search for MyWidget.cpp
  2. I edit file, save and press Ctrl+P
  3. And I would like to see last searched filename (MyWidget.cpp)
  4. It will help me to move to MyWidget.h easily

Now Open File From Project command is empty every time when I press Ctrl+P so I need to type MyWidget once again and then select MyWidget.h

This feature is not related to cpp/h files only. For example in AngularJS, Angular and other modern frameworks there are similar situations, eg.:

home-view.js home-view.css home-view.html

Thank you Slawek

Hi, the author of lite-xl here.

I implemented the improvement you propose here some time ago in lite-xl because it is very useful.

You may consider trying lite-xl from:

https://github.com/franko/lite-xl

It includes a number of improvements.
