Wildcards in "Goto Anything" searches

#1

Allow the use of the wildcard operator ’ * ’ in goto-anything searches.

Example -
Search string: .template.
Results: “form.template.html”, “index.template.html”, etc…]

The only editors I have used that support this for a similar file search feature (really identical) is all of the jetbrains IDE products. It is INCREDIBLY useful, I find myself using it easily 50 times per day in large projects!

I believe you can simply put a space instead of the asterisk… not sure about it anymore now :-p

Good call, that seems to work. Little weird that it doesn’t just use the standard asterisk thought…pretty widely accepted for this type of notation

Actually it seems you don’t even need spaces… you simply type and it works :smiley:

Yea, im seeing this now. Just wasnt obvious at first for someone who is used to doing things a certain way with jetbrains products (uses asterisks)
