ST3: FuzzyFileNav

#5

Like a cancerous growth, or the mould in my bathroom. You just learn to live with it I guess :smile:

Iā€™ve had something since ST1 that has similar functionality to what I understand this does.

However, this seems way more extensive so perhaps I wonā€™t bother porting mine from ST2

Man, we SO need a better way to get the damn show_quick_panel input View huh?

Itā€™s 2013 FFS :smile:

You like that overcomplicated quickpanel view capturing I put in there? :wink: So much work for so little sometimesā€¦

Having said that, FFS, all that should NOT be necessary!

And having said THAT, I guess we should be grateful for the highlight call back eh?

And having said ALL that, now Iā€™m tired!

I was waiting for you to port this before switching over to ST3 at work. Thank you!

(Oh, and support for saving . . . :unamused: )

Yeah, savings been in there for a while. I even announced it. I figured you saw it, or would eventually stumble on it.

I think I saw this back when, but it doesnā€™t do what I mean by saving, if memory serves. Iā€™ll have a look at it when I get home.

Yup. What I mean by ā€˜savingā€™ is replacing the functionality of Ctrl+S (Save) ā€“ i.e., saving the file if it already exists & otherwise popping open FFN*, preferably restricted so that I am forced to save the file before my ADD kicks in.

  • I am, slowly, learning Colemak, which has caused me to become very fond of logograms & abbrv. :smiley:

I will look into a little later. I think it is probably doable, but you would have to override your save shortcut with a FFN entry point. I canā€™t just add it to ā€œon_saveā€, it just wouldnā€™t work well there. When I get a bit more time, I will look into this.

You could probably [ab]use view.retarget for fun and profit ?

True :smile:. I feel bad enough for the abuse I have already committed.

colemak ftw! I never learned qwerty so canā€™t compare it to anything but I never get sore hands :smile:

Never heard of colemak. Doesnā€™t look to hard to learn; not a huge change like dvorak. I may give it a try.

I would be very grateful! Iā€™ve already mapped FFN to Ctrl+O, which is why its (short) absence from ST3 crippled me. I would have no problem doing the same for Ctrl+S, but you would need to provide an appropriate command. I looked into writing it myself, but itā€™s a little beyond my capabilities.

I can use the menu if I need to use my OSā€™s filesystem dialogs (or make appropriate commands for the palette).

FWIW, I started learning Colemak on Thanksgiving (you can imagine what fun I must have been having! :wink: ). I practiced for a couple dozen hours to get all the keys down and then it was a matter of training my muscle memory. I was doing around 20 WPM when I began confusing Colemak & Qwerty, thus necessitating switching 100%. (This was at the beginning of January. I should mention that I had a two-week hiatus from all keyboards just prior.) That was painful until I hit 30 WPM, which is about the minimum I can tolerate. I think Iā€™m at about 40+ now (a far cry from the 90ish WPM I had originally), but I like Colemak thus far. I should also note that even though I was very fast, I did not know how to touch type.

Speaking of win, did you ever find a solution to using Colemak with Vim bindings in Sublime? I am a Vim virgin (or is that a vimgin?), but I donā€™t see how it would work with Colemak. Do you remap HJKL to HNEI? If, so, what do you do with N or I? Et ceteraā€¦

Nah, I still donā€™t use Vintage/Vintageous ( though use my own home row and modal bindings )

Apparently the creator of colemak actually uses Sublime Text these days.

Last time I tried to get in contact with him to get some tips was definitely not a win.

In other words, that reminds me

We should hunt him down and pick his brains :smile:

Mind sharing? (Although Iā€™m not sure what modal bindings areā€¦ they sound yummy.)

Is this the thread you are referring to? --> forum.colemak.com/viewtopic.php?id=50&p=1

Iā€™ve looked at it, but not too closely.

I have now removed the setting in ST3 ā€œnix_style_path_completeā€ and replaced it with a new setting.

[pre=#2D2D2D] // (fuzzy/windows/nix)
// fuzzy - this will auto-complete with the selected index in the quick panel
// windows - this will complete like a windows terminal would complete paths
// nix - this will complete like a unix/linux terminal traditionally completes paths
ā€œcompletion_styleā€: ā€œfuzzyā€,[/pre]

By default, ā€œfuzzyā€ is used for a more natural quick panel feel. The current selected index in the quick panel will now be used. This is for ST3 only.

Does FuzzyFileNav support recursive fuzzy finding?
