I would love to see this feature implemented in a similar way for Emacs.
- alnayyir 15y agoAlready exists in the form of ack mode, which is better integrated with the editor. https://github.com/defunkt/emacs/blob/master/vendor/ack.el https://github.com/defunkt/emacs/blob/master/vendor/ack.el http://nschum.de/src/emacs/full-ack/ http://nschum.de/src/emacs/full-ack/ There are others, but this should suit anybody's needs. Edited to provide examples.
- jroes 15y agoDefunkt has actually ported a lot of cool textmate features including find-in-project over here in textmate.el: https://github.com/defunkt/textmate.el/ https://github.com/defunkt/textmate.el/
- jtaby 15y agoAdding support for other editors was something I am definitely mulling over, maybe version 2
- alnayyir 15y agoWe (emacs) already have like 5-6 ack modes, I beg of you, don't add to the list. Just find which one you like best and offer improvements.
- beatlevic 15y agoThat is true, but we don't have something like this peep open style, with a nice mac feel to it. Or am I missing one? I like this polished style instead of a fully integrated version in emacs.
- alnayyir 15y agoAre you an Emacs user?
- beatlevic 15y agoYes, but features like ackMate, projectDrawer and visual style make me use Textmate quite a lot (for Ruby dev), which is a pitty because I'm used to my emacs shortcuts. I know most (all?) features are implemented in Emacs, but often in a more spartan way.
- alnayyir 15y agoYou haven't really absorbed why Emacs does things the way it does. Spend more time tinkering with Emacs Lisp and you'll see what I mean.
- beatlevic 15y agoTrust me, I have been tinkering a lot with Emacs lisp, and I really miss some nice visual features. Spend some time tinkering with Textmate and see what I mean ;) I am all for leaving the mouse alone and efficiency, but working on a mac makes me a sucker for eye candy as well. Take for instance again peep open, which is in my opinion a nicely styled plugin, for which I would love to see a 'find in project' equivalent.
- alnayyir 15y agoI am an experienced TextMate user, and when I went back to using Emacs after a hiatus with TextMate, one of the first things I did was import everything I liked about TextMate into Emacs. The functionality you mention exists for Emacs.
- beatlevic 15y agoInstead of telling me it exists, please show me a visually appealing 'find in project' plugin/package. Which got this whole discussion started in the first place...
