Is it possible to use an alternate search tool such as skim instead of fzf? #5
Comments
Hi Kevin. It depends, there are certain fzf options I rely on, and if they aren't implemented in skim, that's a problem. I'll look into this when I get the chance, but I cant guarantee I'll get anywhere with it. |
So far it looks like most of the options are either the same or very similar. The reason I was looking to use skim instead of fzf is because skim has true regex search. |
True regex support would be great. Another thing I miss in fzf is the ability to report the column number for a partial match. Maybe skim supports that as well... It would enable fuzzback to move to a column even though we don't have a literal match. Either way, sorry it takes me a while to reply, or address this. I've been busy, but as soon as I get the chance I'll dedicate some time to this. |
Hi again, so I did some investigating, and turns out it wasn't all that difficult to setup skim as an alternate finder. I've pushed to a new feature branch. You can find details about the new variable Give it a try and let me know how it went. |
If you're curious, it was the option Also popup doesn't work with the skim version I got (0.9.4) |
ok, so I see you removed that option, but the issue I think you hit is that skim doesn't support popup as of yet. |
hmm, it says it supports it
But I'm unable to open any popup, fuzzback or otherwise. |

I tried the following
but, I believe skim has slightly different configuration options.
