Hi, I just completed a rewrite of the search function in GRC (on master). The block tree is now filted (instead of showing search results in a separete category). Also, this fixes the long-standing bug where GRC would crash if the search was open and the window was scrolled to the end. To search, press crtl+f and start typing; press Return to add the first hit and Esc to abort/reset. Also, you can use the arrow keys to navigate the search results. For the vim-ers out there I’ll probably add second keybinding next. =) Cheers, Sebastian – Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) Communications Engineering Lab (CEL) Dipl.-Ing.

I just rebuilt GR just to try this out and it’s definitely a very nice usability improvement ! > For the vim-ers out there I’ll probably add second keybinding next. =) I appreciate the ‘/’ 🙂 Cheers, ``` Sylvain ```
