Kind of annoyed that there's no way within the search box to limit the docset I'm searching for (say I want to open read(2) and type 'read', I get all the Python results I enabled) and that exact matches aren't promoted to the top of the list (when searching for 'read(2)', the first result is aio_read, then pread, then read).
Maybe there's a way to do these things, but I didn't see them in the help pages after a quick perusal.
So, pretty dang nifty, maybe worth $30 to me. Definite sale at $15 or after the next time I get seriously frustrated by how man pages work (that hasn't happened in a while though)
edit: Suggestion for the search box: Start the search from the current position within the document rather than resetting to the top of the page. Especially given the subtle visual of the scrollbar, it'd be nice to not have searching cause the document to jump around all over the place.
- bogdansrc 14y agoYou can use docset keywords to search a specific docset. See Preferences > Docsets > Enable Docsets. Regarding your specific problem, read(2) should have had "read" as the top result. I'll look into it and try to figure out where the sorting fails. Thanks for reporting!
