This would be amazing if it were implemented via the services mechanism. Results sorting could use sorts exposed by other packages. Off the top of my head, I don't know if Atom's preferences (config) interface permits on-the-fly adjustment of options presented in a |

Hi! I would love to see this feature come to fruition. I've never hacked on the Atom codebase before, so is there any way I can help drum up some support for this feature? It has a lot up-votes and has been an open issue since 2014 :) In command-launchers/switchers like Alfred, and it's common to have the option to sort commands by most-recently used (MRU) or some similar, user-centric style. I think this would be a nice benefit. |

I have taken a stab at this in #87 🙂 Two new options are introduced in my PR, sorting by either frequency or by most recently used. I will write some tests in the coming days and try to get someone to review the changes. |

What's the status of this? Can someone check out the pull request #87? |

I also miss it badly! |
Currently the list of commands shown before one types anything is, as I understand, simply sorted alphabetically.
It would be nice if the most recently used commands were at the top of the list. It wouldn't have to be based on statistics since the beginning of time and weighted by a thousand variables; just the last, say, ten commands at the top in (reverse) chronological order would do.
This way even commands without a keybinding wouldn't be more than a ctrl-shift-p, enter away when used repeatedly.
Naturally, this feature could be turned off (or on) with a configuration parameter.
