Very very simple suggestion

Hi mouser, I was wondering if increasing the default value for the "max. files to keep in launch history" could be a good idea.

I don't remember the exact number of the default value, but I do remember it was quite low, and since stuff already in the history is found much much faster (especially if the system is low on ram), I believe it would do no harm and wouldn't slow down anything to increase it to 500 or something like that (mine is at 999 -- so it's almost like an index...). I'm not sure how much new users realize how much this speeds up the search.

i think that's a good idea.

[mouser]

you know you just gave me a really really good idea too.

i've been wanting to add a simple non-contiguous letter search mode, which would let you type something like:
mso
to find: "Microsoft Office"

right now, farr supports non-contiguous words, but because there are SOOOO many possible ways to match files after you type just 2 or 3 letters, i've avoided it.

BUT

what we could do is support such a search within the history without sacrificing any real speed.

Cool! Yes, that would indeed be a good idea, especially since these kinds of abbreviations (mso --> Microsoft Office) are more likely to be used for frequently launched files/programs.

please add this, it sounds too good to be true.
