Hi,
Find attached a small patch to enable simple text search in a scroll-buffer.
This means you can search (and jump) to a simple text or regular expression help
screens, inbox list, or thread view. It's something that I, as a mutt user,
missed in sup. I've bound the buffer search to '#' since '/' is already used for
general search: please change to something more appropriate if you can think of
it.
As this is my first contribution to sup, please tell me whatever I've done
wrong. I wasn't sure where to put this behaviour (I put it in scroll-mode.rb)
and some stuff needs fixing:
- it doesn't open text found in closed threads (patinas),
- it doesn't scroll to email text below the current page (I'm using jump-to-line
but it doesn't seem to work),
- it doesn't have an easy way of doing a repeated search (I know how to do it,
but I couldn't find how to tell ncurses that hitting the search button again
without input should do a repeated search; alternatively, one could register a
new keymap for a repeated search but it seemed like overkill to me).
I'm open to suggestions for improvement and for fixing the outstanding issues.
