      @asvc I’m affraid that the war has been lost, the feature won’t be implemented.
      I’m sorry

        That feeling when you want to use a text editor, but it actively refuses to be used… I will try to poke @sasumner at GitHub one last time.

          When one door closes, another opens. Let’s try with the fork: https://github.com/dail8859/NotepadNext/issues/4

            the fork

            Why do you think NotepadNext is a fork of Notepad++?

              Hello, @don-ho, @cmeriaux, @alan-kilborn, @asvc, @ekopalypse, @michael-vincent, @astrosofista, @mapje71, @terry-r and All,

              In order to promote a bit the incremental search, with regular expressions I just had an idea :

              Why don’t we propose to put a new setting in the config.xml file to allow this new incremental search mode ? So, by default, for non-experienced users, the incremental search would remain a classical search ;-))

              I mean, in the same way that @don-ho, preserved the backward regex search with this new regexBackward4PowerUser attribute in the FindHistory tag, since N++ 7.8.7 Release 4. See my request to @don-ho, one month ago, for such a setting, in the last part of this post :

              https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/post/54520

              Just hope you won’t find this idea too ridiculous !

              Best Regards

              guy038

                Nice fork. Qt is nicer than mfc. Too bad there isn’t a python API for plug-in because I don’t like Lua.

                  @guy038 your idea is a good compromise but I think for a feature like this, it should be mainstream wheter be hidden through a config parameter

                    That’s a start! It can be used to gently introduce the functionality without creating any sort of discomfort for long-term users. Then, based on feedback, setting can be exposed in GUI.

                    Now… How to deliver this message to @donho without annoying him with repetitive requests? :)

                      Good luck figuring that one out. :-)

                          @Alan-Kilborn Yes, this is a fact, it’s hard to argue.
