Can I get next_result to somehow put the cursor at result?

#1

When you use other IDE’s/ Editors and use the ‘search in files’ feature, the next_result button will usually place the cursor at the beginning of the matching result in the relevant line.

Sublime just places it at the beginning of the line and makes you find it yourself.
This is a tedious process.

Anyway I can make it work like I suggested?

Thanks!

As far as I know, the best you can do is run next_result and then find_next. That’s what I usually do. I don’t think you can put either of those into a macro though.

I agree it should be changed to put the insertion point at the beginning of the match.
