emacs-incremental-search

This extension provides emacs-like incremental search function.

This extension is forked from alt-core's fork of siegebell's "Incremental search for multiple cursors" extension.

Features

Forward search

• Default binding: ctrl+s
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.forward

Enters incremental search mode and subsequently advances each cursor to the next match, selecting it.

Backwards search

• Default binding: ctrl+r
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.backward

Enters incremental search mode and subsequently advances each cursor to the next match and selecting it, in the reverse direction.

Expand selection by the next forward match

• Default binding: ctrl+shift+s (when in incremental search mode)
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.expand

Instead of moving the selections to the next match, this adds the next matches to the existing selection.

Expand selection by the next backwards match

• Default binding: ctrl+shift+r (when in incremental search mode)
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.backwardExpand

Expands the selections with a backwards search.

Toggle regular expressions vs plain-text search terms

• Default binding: alt+r (when in incremental search mode)
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.toggleRegExp

The search term is interpreted as a regular expression when enabled, or as plain text otherwise.

Toggle case sensitivity

• Default binding: alt+c (when in incremental search mode)
• Command: extension.incrementalSearch.toggleCaseSensitivity

Toggles whether the match should be case sensitive.
