Like wise. Incremental search is very useful, and I use it in every app
I can.
Ditto.
What is the nature of the current linux bug?
I tried enabling it in SciTE 1.71 on an x64 system with GTK+ at 2.6.10.
My
experience was that the incremental search widget would appear at the
bottom of the frame, but would not accept input. Trying to do anything
else tended to segfault. A sample error:
(SciTE:30044): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkwidget.c: line 2041
(gtk_widget_hide): assertion `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed
I had a brief look at the code, but am unfamiliar with GTK+ so it did not
mean too much to me. This looks as if it really does need someone with
substantial GTK+ experience...
Since I love incremental searching so much I bit the bullet and fixed it.
Don't quite know how patch submitting works, so over here for now:
http://holtzhau.googlepages.com/incrementalfix.patch
(hope it works)
It was mostly signal handlers not returning right stuff. I've modified the
not-found behavior slightly (was not working anyway) and rather made it
give a
visual feedback.
I'm game to improve incremental searching mode even more, so I'm open for
suggestions. With Niel's grace of course.
