Package for GNU Emacs that shows an overview during regex searching.
The package uses the ivy
back end for the overview, see also
swiper-helm.
There's also a ten minute video demo.
Ivy is a generic completion mechanism for Emacs. While it operates
similarly to other completion schemes such as icomplete-mode
, Ivy
aims to be more efficient, smaller, simpler, and smoother to use yet
highly customizable.
To try Ivy, just call M-x ivy-mode
. This will enable
generic Ivy completion, including specific completion for file and
buffer names.
Install the swiper
package from MELPA / GNU ELPA.
The manual is available as HTML.
After installing from MELPA, the manual is also available through the (ivy)
Info node.
The source file for the Info page is here.
Ivy and Swiper wiki is here: the wiki.
