Is there emacs-like incremental search in IntelliJ IDEA?
I miss the emacs behavior for incremental search. In emacs, we can do this:
- C-s
- key in search text, i.e. "button"
The first occurance of button will be found. If you continue to press C-s, the next occurance will be found. It seems to me that IntelliJ is close to this, except that you need to press a different keystroke for the second search. To me, this gets annoying. 开发者_开发技巧I would much rather press the same keystoke for the first as well as subsequent searches.
Is this possible in IntelliJ? It works great in Eclipse with emacs keybindings.
Edit: I opened up a bounty on this question. Is there an example of a similar implementation of this functionality written as a plug-in or patch to IntelliJ IDEA?
In newer releases of IntelliJ, incremental search uses arrow keys to navigate up/down on search term hits. E.g.:
- C-s (if using emacs key-bindings)
- key in search text
- up/down arrow keys to navigate up/down through matching search terms
There is a request in IDEA issue tracker submitted 2 years ago: Emacs-Mode: Incremental Search Again should be mapped to Ctrl-S,Ctrl-R after first search.
As IDEA is open source now, anyone can submit a patch implementing this feature and it will be committed to the next IDEA version.
