Hi,
I've found a wonderful elisp code named "quosimode search" at
emacswiki.org. It uses two mofifiers for incremental search for text.
For example, if I keep Super_R down and type character, it will search
forward for that string. If I keep Hyper_L down, it will search
backward.
I have some interesting ideas about this function. Sometimes, we just
want to go to a location quickly. We can press Super_R and just type
the charaters around that point. We can move there.
But now the problem is that this code hasn't a good repeat mechanism.
If I typed a prefix for that location, I can't skip something similiar
before that point. For example, the pointer is at beginning of the
sentence:
"It stores the string to find in the variable `qsearch-string' "
^^^I want to
move here
I press Hyper_R and type "i", "n", "g", ...
"It stores the string to find in the variable `qsearch-string' "
^^^the
pointer
stopped here
At this moment, I want to use another key, say Hyper_R-RET, to repeat
the search for the string "ing" to the next one.
qsearch.el stores the string to find in the variable `qsearch-string'.
It's easy to repeat the search but the author didn't implement such a
command.
Who will modify this code to enhance it? I think it's better define a
