Hello all!
I've been working on a couple of improvements for t-s-t.
1. I've noticed everytime you type a new letter in the entry box, a new search
is performed in tracker. I think this is not very efficient, as user may want
to look for a longer word, and intermediate searches are not useful at all. So
this first patch only performs a search if 500ms passes by without typing any
text.
2. The second patch allows to restrict searching to a specific path. This is
done using special key 'path:' in the entry search. As example, entering
'offspring path:/home/user/MyMusic' will perform a search within
/home/user/MyMusic. As it can be seen, this approach could be extendend in
future with new keys and combinations.
While the first are quite interesting, not sure for the second one. I mean, I
think it's useful, but I'm not sure if the choosen approach is the best one.
The good part is that it can be extended to other keys, besides path.
