I like launcher very much. Most of my works need。
But I have many front-end projects. you now, with thousands of node_modules packages.
They confuse me when I use launcher to find my project, (for example, I want to enter one of projects, but I cannot search my project name)
So I need it very much.

To search through directories you can use /. If you want to search in your home directory you can use ~/ or /home/(your-user-name-here). This should show the files and folders. You can start typing the name you are looking for (files and folders) here, and use the arrow keys to to select them. You can use Tab on the selected item, and it will autocomplete into the search box. If you want to check for other launcher functionality you can type ?. Does this accomplish what you are try to do?

There is also the find keyword for searching, as opposed to navigating through the filesystem.

Em, I want to find the file' directory. For directory navigate, it only support one level. but I need all of sub directory for current path.
